Hide unused fields in Kibana Discover

Hi, not sure if this is Kibana or something else, but when displaying the Filebeat index using Kibana Discover, all fields are shown, even empty fields with no value. It usually, only shows fields that have data.

How do i "fix" this?

Hi @ajhstn

Which version of Kibana are you using?

Best,

Hi,
I'm seeing the same behaviour using the Filebeat Index template after upgrading from 7.7 to 7.8.

As a workaround you can use Source Filters in the Index Pattern but it would be good to know if there's a way to revert back to the previous behaviour. I also can't see anything obvious about this change in behaviour in the release notes for either ES or Kibana.

this was a bug in 7.8.0 and has been fixed in 7.8.1

best,
Matthias
