I am using Elastic Cloud Kibana and I am always seeing fields that are of date type, but have nothing to do with the indexed document. It is a metricbeat index and I am using the default mapping provided by metricbeat.
Any ideas? Is there any config in Kibana to disable this from the view, or am I missing something?
Hi @luminance, I'm guessing that you are seeing all of the fields in the metricbeat mapping, even ones which might be empty -- but out of curiosity, where in Kibana 7.8 did this screengrab come from? Are you looking at the individual document view in Discover?
HI @tsullivan, that is not the case. There are ~1000 fields defined in the metricbeat mapping template and that is ok. But only the data type fields are showed on every view.
