Kibana less tolerant than Elasticsearch

[jimmyjones2]

Inserting the following document (note missing quote around count):

curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/test/record/1' -d '
{ "@timestamp": "2014-02-28T23:13:20Z",
  count: 1024
}'

results in a Fatal Error in the Kibana 4 Discover page. Not really sure why Elasticsearch accepted it (YAML hangover?), but if Elasticsearch is happy, maybe Kibana should be too?

While Elasticsearch does not require valid JSON, Kibana does. This is simply the behavior of the javascript JSON parser.
