Kibana 4.2 Release Notes

edit
  • Starting with the 2.0 release of Elasticsearch, you can no longer reference fields by leafnode. For example, the geoip.country_code field can no longer support searches such as country_code:US. Instead, use the entire field name. This change affects saved searches, visualizations, and dashboards from previous versions of Kibana.
  • Kibana no longer features copy-to-clipboard functionality.
