Hello,

I used Kibana API to get info about a data view

```auto
GET kbn:/api/data_views/data_view/<data_view_id>

```

and I got an object as the following:

```auto
{
    "data_view": {
      "id": "...",
      "version": "...",
      "title": "...",
      "sourceFilters": [],
      "fields": {},
      "typeMeta": {},
      "fieldFormats": {},
      "runtimeFieldMap": {},
      "fieldAttrs": {
        "prometheus.labels.instance": {
          "count": 1
        }
      },
      "allowNoIndex": false,
      "name": "..."
    }
}

```

I searched but didn't find what `fieldAttrs` corresponds to.  
Could someone give me some explanations about it ?

@cotarbe

Here's the documentation that you've requested - [Create data view API | Kibana Guide [master] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/data-views-api-create.html#data-views-api-properties) - let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks,  
Matt
