Hello, is there any simple way to update a mapping and change the store value of a field? I'm trying to enable \_timestamp: curl -X PUT [http://localhost:9200/ubilogs-mbr/\_mappings/logs](http://localhost:9200/ubilogs-mbr/_mappings/logs) -d '{ "logs" : { "\_timestamp" : { "enabled" : true, "store" : true, "format": "YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS" } } }' but I get {"error":"MergeMappingException[Merge failed with failures {[mapper [\_timestamp] has different store values]}]","status":400} Antoine -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
