I use Logstash to output data to ES from database, and in the Kibana discover, the field always sort in a-z  
Is there any way to make the field order follow the database field order?

note: My SQL statement already has the fields sorted in the order I want

Hi @Paul_Chen ,

I'm not aware of any possibilities to set custom rule for fields order.

Regards, Dima
