Normal String field displays as list in data table or document table in kibana

[Sandeep_Raju (Sandy)]

Hi all,

I've seen for some fields, Normal String field displays as list in data table or document table in kibana. Even though the field is mapped as plain string, it is shown as list in data table (when taken as top hit) & document table as well.

Is this a bug or can we correct it?

@Sandeep_Raju can you please provide more details? Which is the mapping of your field? Give us some examples of the values it contains and how it is displayed on kibana.

Hi @Stratoula_Kalafateli ,

The field is visible as below in discover:

But the same field is displayed as list form in visualization table as below:

thereby repeating the same value again.

Is this a bug that it shows differently in discover & visualization?

I cant be sure tbh. Which is the field mapping?
Run this on the Dev Tools

GET <index>/_mapping

and send me the mapping of the field

and

GET <index>/_search

and send me some sample values of this field

The mapping is string(keyword)

But I think This is some formatting issue.
