Hi,  
I'm ingesting data from database and trying to create new field and ingest data according to a JSON file. Let me give an example:  
I have field named 'type' and data in this field as 'cat', 'dog', 'flower'.  
Also have an JSON file like this:

```auto
{
    "cat": "animal",
    "dog": "animal",
    "flower": "plant"
}

```

I want to create a field named ''type\_super" and add data by this JSON.  
e.g.,

\*doc - type - type\_super  
doc1 - cat - animal  
doc2 - flower - plant  
doc3 - dog - animal
