==== View dashboard creator and last editor
==== Filter UX improvements in ES|QL

You can now see who created and who last updated a dashboard.
We're thrilled to unveil a complete overhaul of filtering in the ES|QL UX. Now, you can seamlessly filter data by browsing a time series chart, allowing for quick and intuitive time-based filtering. Interactive chart filtering lets you refine your data directly by clicking on any chart, while creating WHERE clause filters from the Discover table or sidebar has never been easier. These enhancements streamline data exploration and analysis, making your ES|QL experience more efficient and user-friendly than ever.

You can find the creator information right from the dashboard list.

Note that the creator information will be visible only for dashboards created on or after version 8.14.
*Create WHERE clause filters from Discover table or sidebar:*

You can also see who last updated a dashboard by clicking the dashboard information icon from the dashboard list. The creator is also visible next to it. This information is immutable and cannot be changed.

==== Field statistics in ES|QL

Field statistics are now available in ES|QL. This feature is designed to provide comprehensive insights for each data field. With this enhancement, you can access detailed statistics such as distributions, averages, and other key metrics, helping you quickly understand your data. This makes data exploration and quality assessment more efficient, providing deeper insights and streamlining the analysis of field-level data in ES|QL.

==== Integrations support in the ES|QL editor when using FROM command.

We're excited to announce enhanced support for integrations in the ES|QL editor with the *FROM* command. Previously, you could only access indices, but now you can also view a list of installed integrations directly within the editor. This improvement streamlines your workflow, making it easier to manage and utilize various integrations while working with your data.
