Define a dynamic field in a non-dynamic object

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

As explained herehttp://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/mapping/object-type.html an
object can be dynamic.

The example shows an object with the default value for dynamic (true), and
disabling dynamic for a specific field ("name"). I want to do the opposite:
I wand my object to be "not dynamic", but I want a specific field to be
dynamic. I have defined the following mapping for that, but it is not
working. Any idea why?

{
"dynamic": "false",
"properties": {
"org_id": {
"index": "analyzed",
"store": "yes",
"type": "integer"
},
"properties": {
"properties": {
"keywordmap": {
"dynamic": "true",
"store": "yes",
"type": "string"
},
"locator": {
"store": "yes",
"type": "string"
},
"multilocator": {
"store": "yes",
"type": "string"
}
}
},
"type": {
"store": "yes",
"type": "string"
}
}
}

Thanks,
Daniel Gonzalez

To make it clear, the field I want to be dynamic is properties.keywordmap.

(unfortunately we are using "properties" too in our data model, so that
this gets a bit confusing when configuring the ES mappings)

Only objects can be dynamic. keywordmap is a string
