Hi All,

I'm using ElasticSearch 2.3.4 and NEST sdk for my .Net Application. I'm trying to define below Index Template and Dynamic Template using Nest Client but not able to identify appropriate APIs for the same,

{  
"template": "_",  
"settings":{  
"index":{  
"analysis":{  
"analyzer":{  
"analyzer\_keyword":{  
"tokenizer":"keyword",  
"filter":"lowercase"  
}  
}  
}  
},  
"number\_of\_shards" : 5,  
"number\_of\_replicas" : 0  
},  
"mappings": {  
"default": {  
"numeric\_detection": true,  
"dynamic\_templates": [  
{  
"string\_analyzer": {  
"match\_mapping\_type": "string",  
"match": "_",  
"mapping": {  
"type": "string",  
"analyzer":"analyzer\_keyword"  
}  
}  
}  
]  
}  
}  
}

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,  
Sreeram
