Alias is causing field limit exceed error

[piyush]

Hi Team,
I am getting "Fields [1000]" limit error but strange things is, only when i created alias over index. Why so?

In Kibana, if i search for Index settings i can see only 47 fields. but a pattern (alias) is showing 982 fields.

*My program is for Blue-Green deployment and for testing i commented it such a way that, now it is creating new index, then add alias to this index and then load JSON file. (Ideally, alias switch should happen after data load)

Thanks & Regards,

What gives:

GET /_alias/Youraliasname

[piyush]

It shows that Alias is pointing to Index, PFB:

{
"index-green": {
"aliases": {
"Alias-*": {}
}
}
}

[dadoonet (David Pilato)]

Is that the real output ?

[piyush]

I changed index and alias names, rest is actual.

{
"IIIIIIII": {
"aliases": {
"AAAAAAAA": {}
}
}
}
