Fields show up as nested JSON in Kibana
editFields show up as nested JSON in Kibana
editWhen Packetbeat exports a field of type dictionary, and the keys are not known in advance, the Discovery page in Kibana will display the field as a nested JSON object:
http.response.headers = { "content-length": 12, "content-type": "application/json" }
To fix this you need to reload the index pattern in Kibana under the Management→Index Patterns, and the index pattern will be updated with a field for each key available in the dictionary:
http.response.headers.content-length = 12 http.response.headers.content-type = "application/json"
