Hi,

I have a Hive database and I connected it with es-hadoop, but I have a problem concerning the date type field, I can not load the date on elasticsearch and visualize it on Kibana, here is my problem in detail:

here is my table on hive :

> ```
> create external table test (date_test string)
> stored by 'org.elasticsearch.hadoop.hive.EsStorageHandler' 
> TBLPROPERTIES('es.resource' = 'hosix/test');
> 
> ```

I searched too much on google and the different problems in the forums, I found that elasticsearch supports the date with ISO 8601 format, so I inserted a line like this:

> insert into test values ('2018-04-08T11:03:21+00:00');

And I made a select query to check that everything is OK on hive :

I created the index on Kibana and recognizes the date\_test field :

can you search in that index for this document? Does it exist? If so, can you paste the mapping of the index and the json fo the document here?
