Cannot create map in Kibana because my index is not listed

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi,

I am trying to create a map in Kibana, but my index is not visible in the Index Pattern dropdown (only the kibana_sample_data_flights).

My index does contain a geo_shape field, here are my mappings:

    {
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "boundary": {
        "type": "geo_shape",
        "strategy": "recursive"
      },
      "itemA": {
        "type": "text",
        "fields": {
          "keyword": {
            "type": "keyword",
            "ignore_above": 256
          }
        }
      },
      "itemD": {
        "type": "text",
        "fields": {

              }
            }
          },

      "type": {

      },
      "validityEnd": {

      },
      "validityStart": {

      },
      "year": {
        "type": "long"
      }
    }
  }
}

The strategy is set to recursive because the indexed geometries are some circles.

Could someone tell me what is wrong with my index or what other conditions I have to comply so that I can create a map dashboard?

Thanks,
Catalin

Did you create the index pattern for your new index ?

Good question. I had an older version of the index pattern, so I deleted it and recreated it.
My index is now visible.

Thanks.

However, I'm getting the following error when creating the map layer:

Unable to convert search response to geoJson feature collection, error: Unable to convert circle geometry to geojson, not supported

But this is another topic.
