Legacy index template is ignored

Elastic Stack Kibana

I have a new style index template without any mapping and a legacy one with all the mappings. The matching indices do not inherit mapping from the legacy one. I expected the two templates to merge.

This is a related issue: Template setting is not honored by the index

This won't happen by design, composable template does not merge with legacy template.

If you have a composable template that matchs an index pattern, the legacy template for it will not be used.

You will need to migrate your mappings to a composable template.
