I am trying to save and search a .txt and .pdf file in Elasticsearch using Java code. Maybe i'm able to save the file but unable to fetch it.  
My controller

```auto
@GetMapping("/finals")
	public String trail1() throws IOException

	{
		RestHighLevelClient client = new RestHighLevelClient(
				RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("localhost", 9200, "http"), new HttpHost("localhost", 9201, "http")));

		String filePath = "C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\phonenumber.txt";
		String encodedfile = null;

		File file = new File(filePath);
		try {
			FileInputStream fileInputStreamReader = new FileInputStream(file);
			byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) file.length()];
			fileInputStreamReader.read(bytes);
			encodedfile = new String(Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(bytes));
		} catch (IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}

		System.out.println(encodedfile);
		// creating index
		CreateIndexRequest request = new CreateIndexRequest("twitter");
		CreateIndexResponse createIndexResponse = client.indices().create(request, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
		System.out.print(createIndexResponse);

		// mapping properties
		PutMappingRequest request2 = new PutMappingRequest("twitter");

		request2.source("{\n" + " \"properties\": {\n" + " \"message\": {\n" + " \"type\": \"binary\"\n"
				+ " }\n" + " }\n" + "}", XContentType.JSON);
		AcknowledgedResponse putMappingResponse = client.indices().putMapping(request2, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

		IndexRequest request3 = new IndexRequest("twitter", "_doc", "56");
		request3.source("{\n" + " \"message\": " + "\"" + encodedfile + "\"" + "}", XContentType.JSON);

		IndexResponse createIndexResponse1 = client.index(request3, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
		
		return createIndexResponse1.toString();

	}

```

When I call /finals on postman, I get the error

```auto
{
    "timestamp": "2022-05-05T09:27:30.386+00:00",
    "status": 500,
    "error": "Internal Server Error",
    "path": "/finals"
}

```

And on STS I get this error

```auto

```

Also why it is showing two different versions of Elasticsearch in my STS console?

I am using Elasticsearch 7.12.0 and java 1.8 Spring 2.5.x

Please let me know if you need any additional information regarding this.

Hi!!

I believe it has something to do with your mapping.

Try something like this, I believe instantiating like this: "new IndexRequest("twitter", "\_doc", "56");" it is already deprecated.

```auto
    IndexRequest request = new IndexRequest("twitter");
    request.source(jsonIndexContent, XContentType.JSON);
    request.opType(OpType.INDEX);
    request.id("56");

```

I did it and now im getting the error `org.elasticsearch.action.ActionRequestValidationException: Validation Failed: 1: mapping type is missing;2: mapping source is missing;`

My controller looks like

```auto
	@GetMapping("/finals")
	public String trail1() throws IOException

	{
		RestHighLevelClient client = new RestHighLevelClient(
				RestClient.builder(new HttpHost("localhost", 9200, "http"), new HttpHost("localhost", 9201, "http")));

		String filePath = "C:\\Users\\Hp\\Desktop\\phonenumber.txt";
		String encodedfile = null;

		File file = new File(filePath);
		try {
			FileInputStream fileInputStreamReader = new FileInputStream(file);
			byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) file.length()];
			fileInputStreamReader.read(bytes);
			encodedfile = new String(Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(bytes));
		} catch (IOException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}

		System.out.println(encodedfile);
		// creating index
		CreateIndexRequest request = new CreateIndexRequest("twitter");
		CreateIndexResponse createIndexResponse = client.indices().create(request, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
		System.out.print(createIndexResponse);

		// mapping properties
		PutMappingRequest request2 = new PutMappingRequest("twitter");

		request2.source("{\n" + " \"properties\": {\n" + " \"message\": {\n" + " \"type\": \"binary\"\n"
				+ " }\n" + " }\n" + "}", XContentType.JSON);
		AcknowledgedResponse putMappingResponse = client.indices().putMapping(request2, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

		IndexRequest request3 = new IndexRequest("twitter", "_doc", "56");
		request3.source("{\n" + " \"message\": " + "\"" + encodedfile + "\"" + "}", XContentType.JSON);

		IndexResponse createIndexResponse1 = client.index(request3, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
		
		return createIndexResponse1.toString();

	}

```

And my console looks like

Great!!

I would send that:

Import:

> import org.elasticsearch.client.indices.PutMappingRequest;

```auto
// mapping properties
    PutMappingRequest putMappingRequest = new PutMappingRequest("twitter");
    putMappingRequest.source("{\n" + " \"properties\": {\n" + " \"message\": {\n" + " \"type\": \"binary\"\n"
        + " }\n" + " }\n" + "}", XContentType.JSON);
    AcknowledgedResponse acknowledgedResponse = client.indices().putMapping(putMappingRequest, RequestOptions.DEFAULT);
    System.out.println("Put Mapping response : " + acknowledgedResponse.isAcknowledged());

```
