elasticsearch {

```
     action => "update"
# doc_as_upsert => "true"     

     hosts => "192.168.88.63"
     index => "apps_user_list"
     retry_on_conflict => 1 
     document_id => "uid%{user_new_id}"

     upsert => ' {
       "test" : "%{user_new_id}"
     }'

   }

```

when doc\_as\_upsert =\> "true" been set,

upsert =\> ' {  
"test" : "%{user\_new\_id}"  
}'

should make error

[ERROR][logstash.outputs.elasticsearch] Encountered a retryable error. Will Retry with exponential backoff {:code=\>400, :url=\>"[http://192.168.88.63:9200/\_bulk](http://192.168.88.63:9200/_bulk)"}

if # doc\_as\_upsert =\> "true",  
upsert =\> ' {  
"test" : "%{user\_new\_id}"  
}'  
works.....

mapping and doc is like this....

{  
"mapping": {  
"doc": {  
"properties": {  
"test": {  
"type": "text",  
"fields": {  
"keyword": {  
"type": "keyword",  
"ignore\_above": 256  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

{  
"\_index": "apps\_user\_list",  
"\_type": "doc",  
"\_id": "uid4924622",  
"\_version": 1,  
"\_score": 1,  
"\_source": {  
"test": "4924622"  
}  
}

maybe the doc\_as\_upsert error in logstash6.4.0.............
