HI,

I have created one index in elastic search with some mapping. after some, I have updated the index mapping and add some more fields into it.  
Now I get index mapping(using get API) it is showing me latest mapping. but I want to know old mapping of that index.  
is any way to get that? is any mapping versioning in elastic search?is any way to get index mapping history?

There's no native mapping versioning, you need to manage that yourself.
