After upgrading from version 7.9.3 to 7.10.0 my timelion views are broken. I was using before. E.g
`.es(index='logstash-*',q="subtype=EQS", metric="sum:payload_length").cusum()`
=\> and get an error:
`Timelion request error: undefined SyntaxError: {"type":"incompleteFunction","function":"es","location":{"min":0,"max":3},"text":".es"}`
after changing it to:
`.es(index="logstash-*",q="subtype=EQS", metric="sum:payload_length").cusum()`
it works again. Seems like your parser has changed. This is very nasty because I use a lot of timelion commands.
Could someone comment on this issue if this a bug or a feature?. It should at least mentioned in the upgrade notes.

Hi, this does indeed look like a bug, I can replicate the behavior. This definitely did not happen on purpose, could you create an issue in the Github repo? [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Bug\_report.md](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Bug_report.md)
