Could you provide a full recreation script as described in About the Elasticsearch category. It will help to better understand what you are doing. Please, try to keep the example as simple as possible.

A full reproduction script will help readers to understand, reproduce and if needed fix your problem. It will also most likely help to get a faster answer.

Most likely you already inserted data with a text type but want now a more complex object.

I have created a new Index to store the data, So I have not stored any previous data of text type in the same index.

This is the full size JSON document I am trying to upload.

As I said:

Please, try to keep the example as simple as possible.

So you don't need to upload your full document.

I have created a new Index to store the data, So I have not stored any previous data of text type in the same index.

So you mean that you ran:

DELETE testing_resumes
PUT testing_resumes/_doc/1
{
   "resume": {
     // ...
   }
}

And that's all?
I doubt it's the case.

Yes you are right.

Yes you are right.

About what?

I ran the script which you have mentioned above.

Unless you have an index template I don't see how this error can happen.

Please share a full script that reproduces the problem on gist.github.com

Actually I have same field more than once but with different format, which throws the error, So my doubt is can we create multiple mapping like it accepts any format, or can I create an index independent of any mapping?

I don't know as I don't understand without an example.
