i have an index which has a field which has 11 different values, but when i try to add a filter for that field in the discover tab the drop down shows only 10 values. My field is mapped as a keyword and i have the correct index selected in the discover tab.

Regardless of the amount of values a field has, the list will return a limited amount amount of suggestions. Once you start typing, the list will filter and may show values that were not part of the initial set.

The limit is due to [the default terms aggregation size](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html#search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation-size) the filter uses to retrieve suggestions. The default size is currently not configurable in Kibana.
