Please format your code, logs or configuration files using `</>` icon as explained in [this guide](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/about-the-elasticsearch-category/21) and not the citation button. It will make your post more readable.

Or use markdown style like:

````
```
CODE
```

````

Instead of `string`, use `text`.  
Instead of `"index": "not_analyzed"`, you can either use `keyword` datatype (instead of `text`) or use `"analyzer": "keyword"`.
