Hi,
I am using metricbeat 7.9.0 daemonset on k8s environment to export the metrics to ELK stack. But I am getting the errors like " Fielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [cloud.account.id] in...."
And
GET /metricbeat-*/_mapping gave me below output:
"cloud" : {
"properties" : {
"account" : {
"properties" : {
"id" : {
"type" : "text",
"fields" : {
"keyword" : {
"type" : "keyword",
"ignore_above" : 256
}
}
}
}
},
All the fields are showing as 'text' fields instead of 'keyword' fields. I expected it to be like below:
"cloud" : {
"properties" : {
"account" : {
"properties" : {
"id" : {
"type" : "keyword",
"ignore_above" : 1024
},
"name" : {
"type" : "keyword",
"ignore_above" : 1024
}
}
},
I checked the fields.yml in the pod which is showing the fields as 'keyword' and 'ignore_above' as 1024. So looks like the fields.yml is not loaded as the metricbeat-* template.
I am new to ELK and it took me 2 days to figure out.
Can someone please help me in this regard on how to force the template mapping?
