Once a base is created when i send a put request with :

r = requests.put("[http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/)/\_doc/", data=, headers=headers)

I have sometimes exception in elasticsearch :

[2020-02-12T19:09:42,487][INFO][o.e.c.m.MetaDataMappingService] [DESKTOP-D8M21T8] [logbooks\_index\_concepts/MNj\_ZkWZQ2eTGJgxMhNEtw] update\_mapping [\_doc]

How to get the exception from python script :

[logbooks\_index\_concepts][0] failed to execute bulk item (index) index {[logbooks\_index\_concepts][\_doc][219], source[n/a, actual length: [2mb], max length: 2kb]}

at org.elasticsearch.index.mapper.FieldMapper.parse(FieldMapper.java:299)

I don't succed to get it from my python script.

Hi @cyrduf.  
please try with below code.  
# Import Elasticsearch package  
from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch

# Connect to the elastic cluster

es=Elasticsearch([{'host':'192.XX.XXX.XX','port':9200}])  
print("connection has been done here")

# Let's insert some more documents on index megacorp

e2={  
"first\_name" : "Jane",  
"last\_name" : "Smith",  
"age" : 32,  
"about" : "I like to collect rock albums",  
"interests": ["music"]  
}  
e3={  
"first\_name" : "Douglas",  
"last\_name" : "Fir",  
"age" : 35,  
"about": "I like to build cabinets",  
"interests": ["forestry"]  
}  
res=es.index(index='megacorp',doc\_type='employee',id=2,body=e2)  
print("CREATED",res)  
res=es.index(index='megacorp',doc\_type='employee',id=3,body=e3)  
print ("CREATED",res)  
#print("total no. of records:")  
#False  
#True

Hi ,

Thank you for your answer but it doesn't answer to my question.

I serach info on elasticsearch exception to be treated by the python API on put requests.  
I give the excpetion I want to treat in my log.

So I search how to manage put request and all the error cases through PYTHON.

Regards
