When using Discover, I can type simple queries such as 'filetype: "server-status"' and Kibana (I assume) is converting that into an actual query that Elasticsearch will respond to. In Machine Learning I want to run a job against the population of events that have 'filetype: "server-status"', but ML requires a proper query. Is there a way to see the query Kibana ran, so that I can copy and paste it into the job datafeed, and not learn the ins and outs of Query DSL 🙂

Click the up caret in the lower left corner of the date histogram. Open the `request` tab. This is the request that was sent to ElasticSearch. The query bar is a lucene query and has been put into the request as a [query\_string](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-query-string-query.html).
