I want to remove all deprecation warnings from the kibana. In the logs, I have seen that kibana.defaultAppId has been deprecated and it has been suggested that defaultRoute should be used. But when i set this option in kibana .yml configuration file like this

```auto
# The default application to load.
defaultRoute: "dashboard"

```

I am getting the error.

```auto
FATAL Error: Unknown configuration key(s): "defaultRoute". Check for spelling errors and ensure that expected plugins are installed.

```

Can anyone guide me how to solve this issue.

I believe the correct key is `server.defaultRoute`. Also, I think it should be set to `/app/dashboard`.
