Hello,
I am new to the forum so hi. I have the old _type field from previous elasticsearch versions in all my documents and want it removed from my documents. How can I do this?
Checking for tasks with /tasks tells me that no such task is active.
Searching the index with idexName/_search tells me that all the documents still have the _type field:
Yes the field _type is part of the metadata is will be there with default value "_doc"
befre es 6, it was possible to define multiple _type as part of the index mapping ....
And that was my reflex is that you still have a field _type under the _source part of the doc
So is it fine that the field type is still there? I heard that it wont be supported later on so I want to get rid of it to not run into issues with next versions.
