Get a recurring view of an Elasticsearch index schema
Keep the mapping for an important index easy to review by collecting its schema in a scheduled report.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Index Schema
View the structure and field mappings of an index.
Why this helps
Understanding which fields an index contains takes extra effort when its schema is not close at hand.
- Retrieve the complete mapping for a specified index.
- Summarize field names and types in a scheduled report.
- Make schema review part of a recurring routine.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the index schema review.
- 3In one instruction, specify the index and ask for a readable summary of its mapping.
- 4Pick the schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example using an index that exists in your cluster.
Questions about this workflow
Can this review every index automatically?
The Get Index Schema action retrieves the schema of a specific index. Specify the index to inspect in the instruction.
Does the workflow change the mapping?
No. It retrieves the schema for review and does not update Elasticsearch.
