[BUG] [Inspect] Request data does not contain all the params like in the payload of the browser developer tools

[quanghungb]

I could notice that the request data given in: Inspect > View:Requests> Request does not contain all the params sent to the server.

Indeed the payload captured by the browser dev tools contains also the index that was missing in the inspected request data.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Visualize and open an existing visualisation (or create one) with the index my_index
2. Open the browser Developer Tools
3. Refresh or update
4. Click on Inspect > View: Requests > Request (tab) where is displayed the request sent. You can see something like that (without the index name)

{
  "aggs": {
    "5": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "my_field",
        "order": {
          "1": "desc"
        },
        "size": 500000
      },
      "aggs": {
        "1": {
          "sum": {
            "field": "qty"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "size": 0,
  "stored_fields": [
    "*"
  ],
  "script_fields": {},
  "docvalue_fields": [
    {
      "field": "data.kt_begin",
      "format": "date_time"
    },
    {
      "field": "data.timestamp",
      "format": "date_time"
    },
    {
      "field": "timestamp",
      "format": "date_time"
    }
  ],
  "_source": {
    "excludes": []
  },
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": [],
      "filter": [
        {
          "match_all": {}
        },
        {
          "range": {
            "timestamp": {
              "gte": "2023-04-26T22:40:23.287Z",
              "lte": "2023-04-26T22:55:23.287Z",
              "format": "strict_date_optional_time"
            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "should": [],
      "must_not": []
    }
  }
}

5. In the browser Develper Tools console, open the Payload (or select the request then copy as cURL
   You could see that there is also the index (of the visualisation) in the request

'{"params":{"index":"my_index","body":{"aggs":{"5"

6. As a result you can not use the inspected request data for the replay. But you can replay the request with the copy as cURL one

Expected behavior
The inspected request data should contain all the params in order to be replayed correctly.

@kgcreative @KrooshalUX @dagneyb I wonder if we can make the Inspect results from Dashboards visualizations more useful, perhaps by making it easy to open those requests in the console in one-click, or to copy the (full) request as a cURL command.

As for this particular behavior, I'm not aware of any good reason for the index to be excluded.

@joshuarrrr I used this feature in order to have the request posted for debugging/investigation purpose. TBH the inspect feature could be cool to see things but only for a "small" request with few parameters but a "big" one (usually the ones that trigger issues) it's very hard to read the json. Therefore it's more useful to have it as curl request for the replay.

So I would be useful if we can easily copy it directly (including the auth token at the same time :))

@joshuarrrr I like it
