Hi,

_What is the condition for an index to be listed as an option, either in Documents or Grid Aggregation?_

My index have a field named "location" with geo\_point type.  
But it is filtered someway and only sample kibana data is showing.

Hi @luizvaz,

Have you created an [Index Pattern](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tutorial-define-index.html) for your index?

Best,  
Oleg

Yes, I did.

I found the problem.  
My first elastic index, mapped wrong a location field.  
Instead creating a geo\_point, created subproperties lat, long using float.

I created a mapping to fix that and reindexed.

Now its works:

The answer is: geo\_point is mandatory.  
Location as a couple of float numbers don't work.

Thanks!
