I am unable to push the documents in the newly created index and add new fields to it using the kibana core API . Although I was able to do it with the dev tool. i want to implement this feature in my plugin to add documents and add new fields to it.  
Something like this -  
POST index name/type  
{  
"document1":"value"  
}

the `context.core.elasticsearch.client.asCurrentUser.create` method should allow you to create write new documents.
