Internal server error: /api/kibana/suggestions/values/Default

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi, my Kibana instance seems to be encountering this internal server error from time to time. Does anyone know why?

{
  "type": "error",
  "@timestamp": "2020-09-24T01:37:50Z",
  "tags": [],

  },

This route is fetching the suggestions for the query bar. It is basically doing a terms aggregation. Can you check the Elasticsearch logs whether anything in there correlates with these errors?

Hi @flash1293,

Thanks for the response. I don't see much of anything in the logs. This is all it has which seems to be a few days old:

But heap seems to be fine on all nodes (60-70%).

This doesn't seem related. Which version of Kibana are you running?

Both Elasticsearch and Kibana are on version 7.9.0.
