Hi Experts,

Could you please assist me on how I can format the field value in Elasticsearch? I tried gsub under ingest pipeline , but it is not working as expected.

code

```auto
"gsub": {
        "field": "destination",
        "pattern": ",",
        "replacement": "\",\""
      }

```

Actual field value /input to ingest pipeline

```auto
"destination" : "Test01@gamil.com,Test02@gamil.com"

```

Field value inserted into elastic document using above code

```auto
"destination" : """Test01@gamil.com","Test02@gamil.com"""

```

Desire output

```auto
"destination" : "Test01@gamil.com","Test02@gamil.com"

```

Note : I also tried pattern\_replace analyzer but no luck
