Mapping conflict! A field is defined as several types (string, integer, etc) across the indices that match this pattern. You may still be able to use these conflict fields in parts of Kibana, but they will be unavailable for functions that require Kibana to know their type. Correcting this issue will require reindexing your data.

Hi @AadarshKumayan,

I understand you get this message from Kibana, could you care to explain your setup? I'm specially interested in the list of projects you are using, along with their versions
