Description
Hello ,
in our application we will during a trace also write certain numeric statistic like memory usage etc..
All these additional fields are written as custom fields. When we check on the custom field in Kibana the fields are there just as string fields and not as numeric.
Is there a way how to format custom fields as numeric?

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the custom-field handling and reviewing how structured log values are sent for Elasticsearch/Kibana analysis. Done means numeric statistics appear as numeric fields rather than strings, with the behavior verified in the relevant logging or integration checks.
