Default field setting under a dynamic 'object'

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi,

Is it possible to define field mapping under a dynamic object for every
field? I don't know in advance the name of the fields, but all should have
been treated as string keywords. Imagine something similar for the mapping:

myCustomMapping {
"fieldA": { "type": "string", "index": "analyzed", "analyzer": "keyword",
"store":"yes" }
"fieldB": { "type": "string", "index": "analyzed", "analyzer": "keyword",
"store":"yes" }
"fieldC": { "type": "string", "index": "analyzed", "analyzer": "keyword",
"store":"yes" }
"customFields": {
"type": "object",
"dynamic": "true",

  •    "_defaultMapping" : {
          { "type": "string", "index": "analyzed", "analyzer":

"keyword", "store":"yes" }
}

  • }
    }

I'm not sure, that my intentions are clear enough, I would like to search
by any of the customFields as terms.
Any suggestions how to achieve this, are welcomed.

Thanks
Zsombor

You can do that using dynamic templates in the root object mapper.
