Welcome!

You will probably need to reindex and provide the right `_id` and the right `_routing` key.

After either deleting single documents or fully reindexing your data you can ensure, that routing is required when a document is indexed in the future.

See [\_routing field | Elasticsearch Guide [7.12] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.12/mapping-routing-field.html#_making_a_routing_value_required)
