TypeError: "field" is a required parameter

Hi,

After discovering fields in my Elasticsearch cloud trial a few days ago I logged in today and saw this,

Where do I start figuring this out?

Hrm, I've never seen that error before, and I can't find anything in the issues on Github.

What version of the stack are you running in Cloud? And do you have data in whatever time range you're looking at? That shouldn't be a requirement, but maybe it'll help narrow down the cause.

I might have found something related: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/9571

For the index pattern which you are on, can you provide the output of this:

GET <index-pattern>/_field_stats?fields=*&level=cluster&allow_no_indices=false

and

GET <index-pattern>/_mapping

Here is an anonymized version of the response to the above request. Below that is the anonymized mapping. Without the names this is possibly of no use but I appreciate the offer of help.
