Hi, We are trying to migrate our data running on ES cluster running version 1.0.3 to a cluster running version 1.3.2. Our cluster on version 1.0.3 is snapshotted to S3. I would like to restore that snapshot to our cluster running 1.3.2. I am unable to create the S3 repository however on my cluster running 1.3.2. I have installed version 2.3.0 of the aws-cloud plugin. Here is the command I am running: curl 'localhost:9200/\_snapshot/products-v0.2.1' -d '{ "products-v0.2.1": { "type": "s3", "settings": { "region": "us-east", "bucket": "my-bucket" } } }' Here is the response I get: {"error":"ActionRequestValidationException[Validation Failed: 1: type is missing;]","status":500} Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you try to create a repo? If so, you need to use PUT method. Something like: $ curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/\_snapshot/my\_s3\_repository](http://localhost:9200/_snapshot/my_s3_repository)' -d '{ "type": "s3", "settings": { "bucket": "my\_bucket\_name", "region": "us-west" } }' -- David 😉 Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs Le 4 sept. 2014 à 17:58, Dylan Lingelbach [dylan@markitx.com](mailto:dylan@markitx.com) a écrit : Hi, We are trying to migrate our data running on ES cluster running version 1.0.3 to a cluster running version 1.3.2.

Thanks David. I typed the command I was running to try to create the repository incorrectly.
