Elastic Search mapper_parsing_exception error

Question

I have created a index in elastic search with name test. Index mapping is as follow:

{
    "title": {
        "type": "text",
        "fields": {
            "raw": {
                "type": "keyword"
            }
        }
    },
    "url": {
        "type": "text",
        "fields": {
            "raw": {
                "type": "keyword"
            }
        }
    }
}

after creating index I have added following documents into it:

 {
    "title": "demo",
    "url": {
        "name": "tiger",
        "age": 10
    }
}

But I am getting following error:

{"mapper_parsing_exception","reason":"failed to parse field [url] of type [text]"}

can anyone help me into this?

Answer 1

If your documents look like this:

{
    "title": "demo",
    "url": {
        "name": "tiger",
        "age": 10
    }
}

Then your mapping needs to look like this, i.e. url is an object with the name and age fields:

{
  "title": {
    "type": "text",
    "fields": {
      "raw": {
        "type": "keyword"
      }
    }
  },
  "url": {
    "properties": {
      "name": {
        "type": "text",
        "fields": {
          "raw": {
            "type": "keyword"
          }
        }
      },
      "age": {
        "type": "integer"
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi You need to create mapping like this

PUT test
{
    "settings" : {
        "number_of_shards" : 1
    },
    "mapping": {
    "title": {
      "type": "text",
      "fields": {
        "raw": {
          "type": "keyword"
        }
      }
    },
    "url": {
      "type": "text",
      "fields": {
        "raw": {
          "type": "keyword"
        }
      }
    }
  }
} 

And the document is

put test/doc/1
{
    "title": "demo",
    "url": {
        "name": "tiger",
        "age": 10
    }
}


GET test/doc/1

And the result is

{
  "_index" : "test",
  "_type" : "doc",
  "_id" : "1",
  "_version" : 1,
  "_seq_no" : 0,
  "_primary_term" : 1,
  "found" : true,
  "_source" : {
    "title" : "demo",
    "url" : {
      "name" : "tiger",
      "age" : 10
    }
  }
}
