I am trying to learn Elasticsearch and I have made a Python script that will send data to an index. One of the things I am sending is the date/time. The format of the date/time in my output is

> 'date': '2020-09-10T06:45:17.010945'

but my index in Elasticsearch shows this

> date Sep 10, 2020 @ 01:45:17.010

Is there a way to format time to be the same? Mappings?
