I'm on `Stack Management/Ingest Pipelines` in Kibana. I can search for all the managed pipelines by entering `is:isManaged`. What query string do I enter to find all the _non_-managed pipelines?

I don't know what query language is being used here. I guessed at a bunch of negations, but none of them worked.

Which version of the stack are you using? Newer version you have a selector on the right side.

But to negate you need to add a minus in front of it, `-is:isManaged`.
