Elasticsearch 8.5 scenarios to Index Nested Documents with Dynamic Mapping
I'm dealing with I tried several approaches but none seem to work. I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about I'm having a hard time understanding I'm having trouble with indexing nested documents in Elasticsearch 8.5..... I have a structure where I need to index documents that contain a nested field, but despite enabling dynamic mapping, the nested fields are not being indexed correctly. Here is the relevant mapping for my index: ```json { "mappings": { "properties": { "user": { "type": "object", "properties": { "name": { "type": "text" }, "age": { "type": "integer" }, "addresses": { "type": "nested", "properties": { "city": { "type": "text" }, "zipcode": { "type": "keyword" } } } } } } } } ``` Despite this mapping, when I attempt to index a document like: ```json { "user": { "name": "Alice", "age": 30, "addresses": [ { "city": "New York", "zipcode": "10001" }, { "city": "Los Angeles", "zipcode": "90001" } ] } } ``` I receive the following behavior: `MapperParsingException: failed to parse field [user.addresses] as nested`. I've double-checked the mapping and the JSON structure, but it still won't index. I've also tried explicitly defining the `addresses` field as a nested type before indexing the documents, but that didn't change the outcome. I used the following command to index: ```bash curl -X POST "localhost:9200/my_index/_doc" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{...}' ``` Can anyone guide to understand why the nested documents are not being indexed correctly, or if there's a specific setting I might be missing? Any insight would be appreciated! My development environment is Ubuntu 22.04. Thanks for your help in advance! I'm on Windows 10 using the latest version of Json. Thanks for any help you can provide! Thanks in advance! Any suggestions would be helpful.
