When I try to do:  
"curl -XPUT [http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200) -d '{ "name" : "Dilbert Brown" }' "

I get this message:

No handler found for uri [/] and method [PUT]curl: (6) Could not resolve  
host: name; Host not found

curl: (7) couldn't connect to host at :80

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: Dilbert Brown; Host not found

curl: (3) [globbing] unmatched close brace/bracket at pos 1

Someone knows what's the problem?

Thanks

Hello!

Try the following:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/INDEX\_NAME/TYPE\_NAME/ID](http://localhost:9200/INDEX_NAME/TYPE_NAME/ID)' -d '{"name" : "Dilbert Brown"}'

where:

- INDEX\_NAME is the name of your index

- TYPE\_NAME is the name of your type

- ID is the identifier of the document

So the whole command looks like this for example:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/users/user/1](http://localhost:9200/users/user/1)' -d '{"name" : "Dilbert Brown"}'
