=== Find File Structure API
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Find File Structure API can be used to find the structure of a text file
|
|
|
|
|
and other information that will be useful to import its contents to an {es}
|
|
|
|
|
index. It accepts a +{request}+ object and responds
|
|
|
|
|
with a +{response}+ object.

==== Find File Structure Request
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A sample from the beginning of the file (or the entire file contents if
|
|
|
|
|
it's small) must be added to the +{request}+ object using the
|
|
|
|
|
`FindFileStructureRequest#setSample` method.

|
as well as mappings and an ingest pipeline that could be used
|
|
|
|
|
to index the contents into {es}.
