Hi,

I am a newcomer.  
Currently I have no idea why my Kibana will miss data from ElasticSearch.

For example, I have a document in ElasticSearch as below:

{  
"\_index" : "logstash-2014.11.21",  
"\_type" : "helloworld",  
"\_id" : "AUnRd7QFrYK3VDWcAPiu",  
"\_version" : 1,  
"found" : true,  
"\_source":{"@timestamp":"2014-11-21T06:52:18+00:00","lists":[{"ooxx":"prog\_list","yyzz":"programming list"}],"@log\_name":"test.app-10.12.0.111"}  
}

But in Kibana, I only saw as below:

t\_source {"@timestamp":"2014-11-21T06:52:18+00:00","@log\_name":"cms-api.app-10.2.0.123"}

The "lists" field is not existing...

Can anyone help ?

Thanks.

I am having the same problem. I can see this in Sense:

{  
"\_index": "ep-client-stats-staging-v2",  
"\_type": "stats",  
"\_id": "41bcc398-2298-4925-b0d4-6df13749a54f",  
"\_score": 7.4639173,  
"\_source": {  
"WhenAddedToEsBulkProcessor": "2014-12-16T01:19:51.448Z",  
"WhenPublishedToKafka": "2014-12-16T01:09:21.042196751Z",  
"When": "2014-12-16T01:09:21.168220861Z",  
"WhenConsumedFromKafka": "2014-12-16T01:09:21.146Z",  
"kafkaPublishToEsBulkMs": 630406,  
"HashKey": "00-11-22-33-44-56",  
"ID": "00-11-22-33-44-56",  
"KafkaPublishToConsumeMs": 104,  
"Topic": "ep-client-stats-staging",  
"Clients": [  
{  
"Rxbps": 1938,  
"TxPkts": 127,  
"Wlan": "wlan0",  
"AvgRSSI": -38,  
"TxFailed": 0,  
"TxBytes": 45306,  
"RxBitRate": 39,  
"MAC": "18-87-96-f4-9d-50",  
"RxPkts": 248,  
"ConnectedTimeSec": 306,  
"ARCStatus": 0,

"TxRetries": 46,  
"InactiveTimeMilliSec": 240,  
"Txbps": 2089,  
"Rxpps": 1,  
"Txpps": 1,

"TxBitRate": 58.5  
}  
],  
"Interval": 10000674819  
}  
}

But Kibana 4 in the \_source I don't see the Clients Array

{"WhenAddedToEsBulkProc  
essor":"2014-12-16T01:36:31.553Z","WhenPublishedToKafka":"2014-12-16T01:36:31.403403007Z","When":"2014-12-16T01:36:31.311554243Z","WhenConsumedFromKafka

s":150,"HashKey":"00-11-22-33-44-56","ID":"00-11-22-33-44-56","KafkaPublishToConsume  
Ms":143,"Topic":"ep-client-stats-staging","Interval":10000837505}

Kibana4 shows the Clients keys as "Missing Fields"
