My expectation is that adding the 'convert' would insure that all data for that field will be of type "float", but I guess I did it wrong? relevant part of data: "metrics"=>[ { "Unit"=>"Count", "MetricName"=>"ResourceCount", "Timestamp"=>"2021-11-22T15:31:50.684999", "Value"=>2 }, {…

This has to be done in the index mapping . The data types in Logstash don't translate over to Elastic and are only used internally to Logstash.

Tried "mutate" convert", logstash getting error from elasticsearch: "type [float] to [long]"
