[[ignore-malformed]]
|

|
|
=== `ignore_malformed`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes you don't have much control over the data that you receive. One
|
||
|
|
user may send a `login` field that is a <<date,`date`>>, and another sends a
|
||
|
|
`login` field that is an email address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Trying to index the wrong datatype into a field throws an exception by
|
||
|
|
default, and rejects the whole document. The `ignore_malformed` parameter, if
|
||
|
|
set to `true`, allows the exception to be ignored. The malformed field is not
|
||
|
|
indexed, but other fields in the document are processed normally.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example:

// AUTOSENSE

|
<1> This document will be rejected because `number_one` does not allow malformed values.
|
||
|
|
<2> This document will have the `text` field indexed, but not the `number_two` field.

==== Index-level default
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `index.mapping.ignore_malformed` setting can be set on the index level to
|
||
|
|
allow to ignore malformed content globally across all mapping types.

||

<1> The `number_one` field inherits the index-level setting.
|
||
|
|
<2> The `number_two` field overrides the index-level setting to turn off `ignore_malformed`.
