Linestring does not display on Maps App

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Using Kibana 7.0.beta1, with the new and marvelous Map app.
I am able to add layers using elasticsearch indexes containing geo_point, but when I try to add a simple Linestring using geo_shape, I can not see it.
The document I try to use looks like this:

POST gps_test/_doc/1
{  
  "poslist":  
	{ "type": "LINESTRING",
	"coordinates": [[10.491832, 59.941252],[10.491833, 59.941252],[10.491898, 59.941263]]
		}
}

And the mapping of poslist is of type geo_shape, with nothing extra.
Checking the response, I see an error. Trying out the query in console returns errors as well. The query:

GET gps_test/_search
{
  "size": 0,
  "aggs": {
"1": {
  "geo_bounds": {
    "field": "poslist"
  }
}
  },
  "_source": {
"excludes": []
  },
  "stored_fields": [
"*"
  ],
  "script_fields": {},
  "docvalue_fields": [],
  "query": {
"bool": {
  "must": [],
  "filter": [
    {
      "match_all": {}
    }
  ],
  "should": [],
  "must_not": []
}
  }
}

Error returned:

     "type": "illegal_argument_exception",
    "reason": "Fielddata is not supported on field [poslist] of type [geo_shape]"

hi @Babadofar,

thx for checking out the Maps app in beta. Could you please create an issue for this in the github repo? https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new

Not sure if this is related to the Maps app in Kibana, or to some mapping settings in ES (or both). It will be easier to track this as a bug, than here on the discussion forum. Thanks!
