Elastic Agent (fleet) change default mapping

Hi,
I'm using fleet agent to collect logs from Azure event hub.
I'm simply trying to change mapping so one field would be a text instead of a keyword.
To make a long story short, I found the Component Templates that is responsible for the mapping logs-azure.eventhub@package.
It has a dynamic template that every string is converted to a keyword.
So I tried adding a mapped field like so:

"azure": {
          "type": "object",
          "properties": {
            "eventhub": {
              "type": "object",
              "properties": {
                "properties": {
                  "type": "object",
                  "properties": {
                    "requestUri": {
                      "type": "text",
                      "fields": {
                        "requestUriKeyword": {
                          "type": "keyword",
                        }
                      }
                    }
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }

ignore the parenthesis as I may copied it incorrectly
I have a new index created almost every day and yet azure.eventhub.properties.requestUri keeps remaining a keyword even if I recreate the data view.

What am I missing?
I just can't seem to find the issue why the mapping isn't working.
Any help would be much appreciated.
