+.Aggregating and sorting on `_id` is disallowed by default.
+[%collapsible]
+====
+*Details* +
+Previously, it was possible to aggregate and sort on the built-in `_id` field
+by loading an expensive data structure called fielddata. This was deprecated
+in 7.6 and is now disallowed by default in 8.0.
+
+*Impact* +
+Aggregating and sorting on `_id` should be avoided. As an alternative, the
+`_id` field's contents can be duplicated into another field with docvalues
+enabled (note that this does not apply to auto-generated IDs).
