Create or update a component template | Elasticsearch API (v8)

Create or update a component template Added in 7.8.0

POST /_component_template/{name}

Creates or updates a component template. Component templates are building blocks for constructing index templates that specify index mappings, settings, and aliases.

An index template can be composed of multiple component templates. To use a component template, specify it in an index template’s composed_of list. Component templates are only applied to new data streams and indices as part of a matching index template.

Settings and mappings specified directly in the index template or the create index request override any settings or mappings specified in a component template.

Component templates are only used during index creation. For data streams, this includes data stream creation and the creation of a stream’s backing indices. Changes to component templates do not affect existing indices, including a stream’s backing indices.

You can use C-style /* *\/ block comments in component templates. You can include comments anywhere in the request body except before the opening curly bracket.

Path parameters

name string Required

Name of the component template to create. Elasticsearch includes the following built-in component templates: logs-mappings; logs-settings; metrics-mappings; metrics-settings;synthetics-mapping; synthetics-settings. Elastic Agent uses these templates to configure backing indices for its data streams. If you use Elastic Agent and want to overwrite one of these templates, set the version for your replacement template higher than the current version. If you don’t use Elastic Agent and want to disable all built-in component and index templates, set stack.templates.enabled to false using the cluster update settings API.

Query parameters

create boolean

If true, this request cannot replace or update existing component templates.
master_timeout string

Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  origination_date number
  
  If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.
  
  parse_origination_date boolean
  
  Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern ^{.*-{date_format}-\d+,} where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional. An index that was rolled over would normally match the full format, for example logs-2016.10.31-000002). If the index name doesn’t match the pattern, index creation fails.

  limit number | string
  
  The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.
  
  One of:
  number-1 number string-2 string
  
  ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string
  
  This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

  depth object
  
  Additional properties are allowed.
  
  Hide depth attribute Show depth attribute object
  
  limit number
  
  The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.
  
  nested_fields object
  
  Additional properties are allowed.
  
  Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
  
  limit number
  
  The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.
  
  nested_objects object
  
  Additional properties are allowed.
  
  Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
  
  limit number
  
  The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.
  
  field_name_length object
  
  Additional properties are allowed.
  
  Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
  
  limit number
  
  Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

  limit number | string
  
  The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

  This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

  Additional properties are allowed.
  
  Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object

  Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).
