[[ingest-enriching-data]]
== Enrich your data
You can use the <<enrich-processor,enrich processor>>
to append data from existing indices
to incoming documents during ingest.
For example, you can use the enrich processor to:
* Identify web services or vendors based on known IP addresses
* Add product information to retail orders based on product IDs
* Supplement contact information based on an email address
[float]
[[enrich-setup]]
=== Set up an enrich processor
To set up an enrich processor and learn how it works,
follow these steps:
. Check the <<enrich-prereqs, prerequisites>>.
. <<create-enrich-source-index>>.
. <<create-enrich-policy>>.
. <<execute-enrich-policy>>.
. <<add-enrich-processor>>.
. <<ingest-enrich-docs>>.
Once you have an enrich processor set up,
you can <<update-enrich-data,update your enrich data>>
and <<update-enrich-policies, update your enrich policies>>
using the <<enrich-apis,enrich APIs>>.
[IMPORTANT]
====
The enrich processor performs several operations
and may impact the speed of your <<pipeline,ingest pipeline>>.
We strongly recommend testing and benchmarking your enrich processors
before deploying them in production.
We do not recommend using the enrich processor to append real-time data.
The enrich processor works best with reference data
that doesn't change frequently.

[float]
[[create-enrich-source-index]]
==== Create a source index
To begin,
create one or more source indices.
A *source index* contains data you want to append to incoming documents.
You can index and manage documents in a source index
like a regular index.
The following <<docs-index_,index API>> request creates the `users` source index
containing user data.
This request also indexes a new document to the `users` source index.
[source,js]
----
PUT /users/_doc/1?refresh
{
"email": "mardy.brown@asciidocsmith.com",
"first_name": "Mardy",
"last_name": "Brown",
"city": "New Orleans",
"county": "Orleans",
"state": "LA",
"zip": 70116,
"web": "mardy.asciidocsmith.com"
}
----
// CONSOLE
You also can set up {beats-ref}/getting-started.html[{beats}],
such as a {filebeat-ref}/filebeat-getting-started.html[{filebeat}],
to automatically send and index documents
to your source indices.
See {beats-ref}/getting-started.html[Getting started with {beats}].
[float]
[[create-enrich-policy]]
==== Create an enrich policy
Use the <<put-enrich-policy-api, put enrich policy>> API
to create an enrich policy.
include::{docdir}/ingest/apis/enrich/put-enrich-policy.asciidoc[tag=enrich-policy-def]
[source,js]
----
PUT /_enrich/policy/users-policy
{
"match": {
"indices": "users",
"match_field": "email",
"enrich_fields": ["first_name", "last_name", "city", "zip", "state"]
}
}
----
// CONSOLE
// TEST[continued]
[float]
[[execute-enrich-policy]]
==== Execute an enrich policy
Use the <<execute-enrich-policy-api, execute enrich policy>> API
to create an enrich index for the policy.
include::apis/enrich/execute-enrich-policy.asciidoc[tag=execute-enrich-policy-def]
The following request executes the `users-policy` enrich policy.
Because this API request performs several operations,
it may take a while to return a response.
[source,js]
----
POST /_enrich/policy/users-policy/_execute
----
// CONSOLE
// TEST[continued]
[float]
[[add-enrich-processor]]
==== Add the enrich processor to an ingest pipeline
Use the <<put-pipeline-api,put pipeline>> API
to create an ingest pipeline.
Include an <<enrich-processor,enrich processor>>
that uses your enrich policy.
When defining an enrich processor,
you must include the following:
* The *field* used to match incoming documents
to documents in the enrich index.
+
This field should be included in incoming documents.
To match, this field must contain the exact
value of the match field of a document in the enrich index.
* The *target field* added to incoming documents.
This field contains all appended enrich data.
The following request adds a new pipeline, `user_lookup`.
This pipeline includes an enrich processor
that uses the `users-policy` enrich policy.
[source,js]
----
PUT /_ingest/pipeline/user_lookup
{
"description" : "Enriching user details to messages",
"processors" : [
{
"enrich" : {
"policy_name": "users-policy",
"field" : "email",
"target_field": "user"
}
}
]
}
----
// CONSOLE
// TEST[continued]
You also can add other <<ingest-processors,processors>>
to your ingest pipeline.
You can use these processors to change or drop incoming documents
based on your criteria.
See <<ingest-processors>> for a list of built-in processors.
[float]
[[ingest-enrich-docs]]
==== Ingest and enrich documents
Index incoming documents using your ingest pipeline.
Because the enrich policy type is `match`,
the enrich processor matches incoming documents
to documents in the enrich index
based on match field values.
The processor then appends the enrich field data
from any matching document in the enrich index
to target field of the incoming document.
The enrich processor appends all data to the target field as an array.
If the incoming document matches more than one document in the enrich index,
the processor appends data from those documents to the array.
If the incoming document matches no documents in the enrich index,
the processor appends no data.
The following <<docs-index_,Index API>> request uses the ingest pipeline
to index a document
containing the `email` field,
the `match_field` specified in the `users-policy` enrich policy.
[source,js]
----
PUT /my_index/_doc/my_id?pipeline=user_lookup
{
"email": "mardy.brown@asciidocsmith.com"
}
----
// CONSOLE
// TEST[continued]
To verify the enrich processor matched
and appended the appropriate field data,
use the <<docs-get,get>> API to view the indexed document.
[source,js]
----
GET /my_index/_doc/my_id
----
// CONSOLE
// TEST[continued]
The API returns the following response:
[source,js]
----
{
"found": true,
"_index": "my_index",
"_type": "_doc",
"_id": "my_id",
"_version": 1,
"_seq_no": 55,
"_primary_term": 1,
"_source": {
"user": [
{
"email": "mardy.brown@asciidocsmith.com",
"first_name": "Mardy",
"last_name": "Brown",

"state": "LA"
}
],

[[update-enrich-data]]
=== Update your enrich index
include::{docdir}/ingest/apis/enrich/execute-enrich-policy.asciidoc[tag=update-enrich-index]
If wanted, you can <<docs-reindex,reindex>>
or <<docs-update-by-query,update>> any already ingested documents
using your ingest pipeline.
[float]
