I used logstash and try to update change data in mysql to elasticsearch.....but it reindex again the whole documents instead of chnage the version number...bcz when we update anything it should has to chnage ther version number....neither chnage the whole index...

my config file is given below: I kept document\_id ="%{filed\_name}"

but it reindex done not update version

Can you give an example of what you're getting vs. what you expected to get?

Show an example **of a document** that didn't look like you expected it to, and what you expected it to look like.
