Hello every one  
i'm working on adding the index logstash  
i followed this link : [Index and Query a Document | Elasticsearch Guide [1.4] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.4/_index_and_query_a_document.html)

and i exected this :

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/customer/external/1?pretty' -d '

> {  
> "name": "John Doe"  
> }'

----\> this is the result :  
{  
"\_index" : "customer",  
"\_type" : "external",  
"\_id" : "1",  
"\_version" : 1,  
"result" : "created",  
"\_shards" : {  
"total" : 2,  
"successful" : 1,  
"failed" : 0  
},  
"created" : true  
}

when i put : mydomaine:9200/\_cat/indices?v

i got this :

health status index uuid pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size  
yellow open customer gNslldHPS7qZ-9tjWM2PlQ 5 1 2 0 7kb 7kb  
yellow open .kibana h9fV49qHRa2BNZi71GUwYA 1 1 1 0 3.1kb 3.1kb

i want that i get logstash in place of customer

Hi,

(This is more relevant to the ElasticSeach forum)

The insert API consists of

```auto
curl -XPUT '{host}:{port}/{index}/{type}/{_id}'
```

So to create a _logstash_ index, you should call

```auto
curl -XPUT localhost:9200/logstash/external/1?pretty -d '
{
   "name": "John Doe"
}'
```
