Hi,

You can easily insert this message out in ES. Before inserting, you need to be sure of whether you want an object or nested type for the field OrgDetailsLst. The same document can than be inserted.

You can use ES index API (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#_create_document_ids_automatically) for inserting.

{
  "OrgDetailsLst" : [
    {
      "EntityId" : 3,
      "EntityDetailCode" : 0,
      "EntityName" : "PlantCode", 
      "EntityCode" : "DRES",
      "Level" : 0
    },
    {
      "EntityId" : 5,
      "EntityDetailCode" : 0,
      "EntityName" : "CompanyCode",
      "EntityCode" : "0061",
      "Level" : 0
    }
  ]
}

Make sure you apply the mappings first with nested. By default object types will get created.

Ok.

Can you please show with some codebase if I want to add below object inside OrgDetailsLst
{
"EntityId" : 6,
"EntityDetailCode" : 10,
"EntityName" : "CompanyCode1",
"EntityCode" : "0062",
"Level" : 2
}
