Hi,

I have an index named 'product' it has two types named 'type1' and 'type2'

For example:  
/{  
product\_id: "1111",  
price: "23.56",  
stock: "100"  
}/

/{  
product\_id: "1111",  
category: "iPhone case",  
manufacturer: "Belkin"  
}/

I want them to join based on 'product\_id' and index them in either new index  
or new type in same 'product' index, so eventually it should look like this.

/{  
product\_id: "1111",  
price: "23.56",  
stock: "100"  
category: "iPhone case",  
manufacturer: "Belkin"  
}/

FYI,

- I have millions of records similar to above, so finally I will be doing  
the similar thing for all.
- I am using ELK stack.
- My end goal is to display the combined result of above 2 types in Kibana.

My question is similar to this  
[http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Combining-fields-from-various-indexes-td4031116.html](http://elasticsearch-users.115913.n3.nabble.com/Combining-fields-from-various-indexes-td4031116.html)  
but the person reported this question have 2 separate indexes while I have  
one index but 2 separate types.

Thanks!
