[Nurielevi]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Lately i have been adding a lot of new fields to some logs that goes into opensearch and i had a problem with some dashboards that didn't work at all and i got an error the some fields are "problematic". After a research i found out about index pattern and after refreshing it all dashboards were fixed.

@opensearch-project/admin Can you help move this to https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch-Dashboards ?

I think the original design for not auto refreshing idx has some tradeoff concerns. For example the overhead for automatically checking and updating index patterns for every query and the unexpectedly change on visualization. We will discuss this with other maintainers.
