Hi, I want to set watcher(Alert) for Search Latency \> 10 ms.
Please suggest me which field from .monitoring-es-\* index will have this parameter.

The monitoring data only contains aggregated information not on a per search base. Do you really think this solves your use-case?
Have you checked the [slow log](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.1/index-modules-slowlog.html#search-slow-log), which you could index into elasticsearch again and then write a watch?
