### Summary Fixes a bug with the timeline templates not working when specifying filters. * Creates a type safe mechanism for getting StringArrays or regular strings * AddsType Script function returns to functions in the helpers file * Adds unit tests for the effected areas of code and corner cases Before this fix you would get these toaster errors if you tried to use a template name such as `host.name` in the timeline filters: <img width="677" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 58 01 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934058-0bd2fc80-68b4-11ea-8dad-7c257bb81a1d.png"> After this fix it will work for you. Testing: 1) Create a timeline template that has a host.name as both a query and a filter such as this. You can give the value of the host.name any value such as placeholder. <img width="1125" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 56 04 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934108-20af9000-68b4-11ea-8a11-4ba9c935506f.png"> 2) Create a signal that uses it and produces a lot of signals off of something such as all host names <img width="1054" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 50 47 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934198-4f2d6b00-68b4-11ea-8ae3-6de76154cbb7.png"> 3) Ensure you select your **Timeline template** you saved by using the drop down <img width="1071" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 51 21 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934281-73894780-68b4-11ea-9a2a-a0a9176f28ce.png"> 4) Once your signals have run, go to the signals page and send one of the signals for your newly crated rule which has a host name to the timeline from "View in timeline" <img width="568" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 52 10 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934365-a4697c80-68b4-11ea-91a5-e0dea7e3e18f.png"> You should notice that your timeline has both the query and the filter set correctly such as this <img width="1114" alt="Screen Shot 2020-03-18 at 12 56 23 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1151048/76934432-c105b480-68b4-11ea-9a82-3e8a2da19376.png"> ### Other notes All the different fields you can choose from for templates are: ``` 'host.name', 'host.hostname', 'host.domain', 'host.id', 'host.ip', 'client.ip', 'destination.ip', 'server.ip', 'source.ip', 'network.community_id', 'user.name', 'process.name', ``` And it should not work with anything outside of those. You should be able to mix and match them into different filters and queries to have a multiples of them. ### Checklist - [x] [Unit or functional tests](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#cross-browser-compatibility) were updated or added to match the most common scenarios |

Kibana
Kibana is your window into the Elastic Stack. Specifically, it's a browser-based analytics and search dashboard for Elasticsearch.

- Documentation
- Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
- Questions? Problems? Suggestions?
Getting Started
If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.
If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.
Using a Kibana Release
If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:
- Download the latest version on the Kibana Download Page.
- Learn more about Kibana's features and capabilities on the Kibana Product Page.
- We also offer a hosted version of Kibana on our Cloud Service.
Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code
You might want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:
- CONTRIBUTING.md will help you get Kibana up and running.
- If you would like to contribute code, please follow our STYLEGUIDE.md.
- Learn more about our UI code with UI_SYSTEMS.md.
- For all other questions, check out the FAQ.md and wiki.
Documentation
Visit Elastic.co for the full Kibana documentation.
For information about building the documentation, see the README in elastic/docs.
Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
---|---|---|---|
Versions are the same. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.2 | 💚 OK |
ES patch number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.5 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.5.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES major number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 6.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES patch number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
ES minor number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
ES major number is older. | 5.1.2 | 4.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
