Kibana 3.1.2 escapes characters in the passed query

[forzagreen]

When I pass the following query in the query tab:
{"match":{"company": "Apple"}}
Kibana generates: (seen in the inspector with F12)
...{"query":"{\"match\":{\"company\": \"Apple\"}}"}...
So it puts everything between quotes, and escapes all what is inside.

Kibana 3 does not support JSON queries. You will need kibana 4 for this

@rashidkpc I have Kibana 4 but it shows error. I am trying to execute the JSON query in the Adavanced tab of Kibana 4.
It would be helpful if you throw some light on how one can write JSON query in Kibana 4
