Hi

Can we use same index name associated with two or more index types?
For example my index name is "exceptionlist" and it will consist of
two different index type "customerExcetion" and
"adminDefaultException",
Can I use index name + index type as a key to store different data and
as well in the searching also.
Is it possible?

Thanks

You create an index. You store data there. Data can be of multiple
type that you can define in a mapping or via API.

So, yes your requirements should be possible. you can e.g. select the
type directly in the URI of the REST api.

Then it will also be possible that I can delete a particular type
associated with a index with out affecting the rest of the index type?
If yes then which java api can help me?

Thanks

Most actions can be bounded by both index and type. Delete by Query is
no exception, and in fact, the example used demonstrates deleting all
documents belonging to a specific type:
