I'm trying to insert an object to a nested array through the java api, but I get the following error
MapperParsingException[object mapping for [X] tried to parse field [null] as object, but found a concrete value]
doing it through Kibana as shown below the same script works.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
The java code is the following
HashMap<String, Object> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("object", objectAsString);
Script script = new Script(ScriptType.INLINE, "painless", "ctx._source.media.add(params.object)", params);
UpdateResponse result = elasticClient.prepareUpdate(indexName, "Type", documentId).setScript(script).execute().actionGet();
Trhough Kibana
POST index/document/id/_update
{
"script": {
"lang": "painless",
"inline": "ctx._source.media.add(params.object)",
"params": {
"object": {
"description" : "A second image",
"height" : 5,
"weight": 5,
"name" : "Test",
"orientation" : "Vertical",
"url" : "htttp://newurl.jpg",
"tags":["first","second"],
"type":"image"
}
}
}
}
