Hi all,  
A very strange behavior when searching a numeric field.

Kibana 4.6.1 build 10146 Commit SHA 3ff0f9b

Elasticsearch:  
"version" : {  
"number" : "2.4.0",  
"build\_hash" : "ce9f0c7394dee074091dd1bc4e9469251181fc55",  
"build\_timestamp" : "2016-08-29T09:14:17Z",  
"build\_snapshot" : false,  
"lucene\_version" : "5.5.2"  
},

When searching in Kibana for "requestid:12799241640719271" (without the surrounding double-quotes), I'm getting the following results:

You can see the the requestid field(second column) is the next number after the value in the search.

Looking in the response object (clicking the arrow under the event count graph) the number in returned events is correct:

> "requestid": "12799241640719271"

Can anyone explain this sorcery?

Thanks in advance,  
Jorden

Looks like you're getting bitten by [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1274](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1274).
