Dear colleagues. i have index pattern with 20 scripted fields - each one is painless script formula. Is there some method to save all of them kind of backup or to move to other ELStack 5.2.0 platform ? or it is not Kibana but Elastic function ? ---

would it be possible to calculate those values at index time ? i don't think its possible to export them at this time, you can check this issue on github tracking it: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5155](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/5155) ---

To calculate those values at index time is possible. it is working well. Thank you for info re this kind of limitation. But what about my quesion re backup - is it possible and how to save my current configuration from GUI or etc ? ---

if you go to management -\> saved objects you can export all saved objects. unfortunately that doesn't include scripted fields (but should). ---
