I am unable to find example of how to index Json String using Java API.
Could someone help me with that?

I am converting xml to json. I see how to do it in REST api but not sure
how this can be done in Java API

You can index the json as string just setting the source, looks like this

Client client = new TransportClient().addTransportAddress(new
InetSocketTransportAddress("localhost", 9300));
String source = yourJson.toString();

IndexResponse idxResp =
client.prepareIndex().setIndex("documents").setType("document").setId("1")
.setSource(source).setRefresh(true).execute().actionGet();

Thanks, that helps. Can that "setType" be anything? I am assuming it's
another level of hierarchy.

Yeap it is, you can understand that as, an index has many types.
