I just want to create a new index in order to apply this pipeline:

> PUT \_ingest/pipeline/foobar  
> {  
> "description": "Converts foobar data into json",  
> "processors": [  
> {  
> "gsub": {  
> "field": "message",  
> "pattern": """[foobar] """,  
> "replacement": "",  
> "ignore\_missing": true,  
> "ignore\_failure": true,  
> "on\_failure" : [  
> {  
> "set" : {  
> "field" : "error",  
> "value" : "{{ \_ingest.on\_failure\_message }}"  
> }  
> }  
> ]  
> }  
> },  
> {  
> "json" : {  
> "field" : "message",  
> "target\_field" : "foobar\_data",  
> "ignore\_failure": true,  
> "on\_failure" : [  
> {  
> "set" : {  
> "field" : "error",  
> "value" : "{{ \_ingest.on\_failure\_message }}"  
> }  
> }  
> ]  
> }  
> }  
> ]
