Hello all,  
According to the documentation, when using the new "Add filter" values suggestion should be presented, as shown in [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/11375](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/11375)  
However when I use it no values are suggested. What can be the reason?

Thanks

Ok..find it. Did not know that "suggest values" should be turned on in the configuration.  
BTW - there is a warning on "heavy queries to ES"...how do I know if I am in risk? Number of documents?

And other question - It is possible for the suggested values to be filtered already with existing filters instead of returning from the entire documents based?
