Hello, I was testing maps feature and got problem.

Symptom:  
Kibana Maps \> add layers \> documents  
It does not show any index pattern, although I have kibana sample data with index pattern which has geo\_point.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/b/9b0628a912c1c31890957581c6bf815d3a3b1f50.png)  
How I created the issue:  
I added kibana\_sample\_data\_flights demo data and deleted index pattern.  
I firstly made more than 10 index with same name of index pattern.  
I created kibana\_sample\* index pattern.

 ![index patterns](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/d/7/d77a6417c8250988093f60b78c892f5d0361e6be.png) ![kibana_sample](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/2/5/252f74329c02870923923715e488d325c59cede3.png)

I assume that the api is only getting top 10 of the list and figures out if they have geo\_point field.  
How can I fix this issue? Is there any way that I can change the option of API?

Thank you in advance!

I also checked the API related to this issue with 7.9.x, 7.10.2, and found that per\_page is 100, different from version 7.12.0.

Hi @jungsoo,

This sounds like a bug. I may have found a similar bug reported here: [[Geo Alerting] - Kibana does not recognize a valid geo\_shape index when attempting to create a Tracking Containment alert. · Issue #95418 · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/95418). If that is the case, feel free to add your use case as a comment.

If the issue isn't the same, please open a new bug report here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose). 🙏
