Thanks @warkolm I use the same. I found out, I was using ".raw" field in ELK5.6 which was breaking due to ".keyword" field in ELK6.3. Is there a way I can still use ".raw" in field mapping? How to convert field from ".keyword" to ".raw"? ---

Do you need to change that in Elasticsearch or in the dashboard? ---

@warkolm - I like to change it in the elasticsearch. ---

In 6.X, a `.keyword` field is the same as a `.raw` field, it replaces the latter. ---
