Update field with array of objects

[net]

Hi,

I'm using the update api to try to update a field. This field has the mapping (below) that works and has allowed for values that look like this:

[{'customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc'}, {'customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc'}]

The issue I'm having is that when I try to update the field with the value above I get the error below. It looks like it doesn't like the { but I'm not sure how I can fix that. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

"products" : {
  "type" : "nested",
  "properties" : {
    "customer" : {
      "type":"string",
      "index":"not_analyzed"
    },
    "group" : {
      "type":"string",
      "index":"not_analyzed"
    },
    "name" : {
      "type":"string",
      "index":"not_analyzed"
    }
  }
}

        "lang": "painless"
  },
  "query": {
    "term" : { "id" : "23423" } 
  }
}

error:

{
"script": {
"inline": "ctx._source.products = [{'customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc'}, {'customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc'}]",
"lang": "painless"
},
"query": {
"term" : { "id" : "23423" }
}
}

Okay, I figured it out. I read that maps are defined like this in painless def person = ['name': 'Joe', 'age': 63];

So I replaced the { } to and it worked (see code below). Now I have an array of maps.

{
  "script": {
    "inline": "ctx._source.products = [['customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc'], ['customer': 'Joe', 'group': 'blah', 'name': 'abc']]",
        "lang": "painless"
  },
  "query": {
    "term" : { "id" : "23423" } 
  }
}
