Understand an Elasticsearch index before querying it
Get the index mapping and a focused explanation of field names and types, using the context already in your request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Index Schema
View the structure and field mappings of an index.
Why this helps
Unfamiliar mappings make it harder to write a useful search without opening documentation or asking a teammate.
- Retrieve the complete mapping for a named index.
- Explain fields relevant to the request in plain language.
- Spot which field details are still unclear before searching.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 0CodeKit and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that explains a mapping for the request's named index.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and include the index name and the question to answer.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real index.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow infer a schema without an index name?
No. The Get Index Schema action needs a specific index. Include its name in the request.
Can it tell me what every field means to my business?
It can explain the mapping and field types, but business meaning must come from information you provide.
