Hi all!

Is it possible in ingest pipeline to call [JSON Processor](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/json-processor.html) from [Script Processor](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/script-processor.html) ?

Something like this:

```auto
{
  "script": {
    "lang": "painless",
    "source": "ctx.field_json = **JSON_Processor_here** (params.param_str)",
    "params": {
      "param_str": "{\"key\":\"WebSite\",\"value\":\"myhost.com\"}"
    }
  }
}

```

Thanks,  
Mike

This will be possible in 6.4.0 thanks to [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/32170](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/32170)

Thats great! Really thanks to original\_bear.  
@rjernst, may be a silly question, but is there any information on release dates of 6.4.0?

Answering to myself to close the question: based on previous release dates it appears to be 2 to 4 months between releases. Thus, let it be September or October 🙂
