You can't use this operation to update mappings that already map to existing data in the index. You must first create a new index with your desired mappings, and then use the [reindex API operation]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/reindex-data) to map all the documents from your old index to the new index. If you don't want any downtime while you re-index your indexes, you can use [aliases]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/index-alias).
## Example
```json
PUT /sample-index/_mapping
## Required path parameter
{
"properties": {
"age": {
"type": "integer"
},
"occupation":{
"type": "text"
}
}
}
```
## Path and HTTP methods
The only required path parameter is the index with which to associate the mapping. If you don't specify an index, you will get an error. You can specify a single index, or multiple indexes separated by a comma as follows:
```
PUT /<target-index>/_mapping
PUT /_mapping
```
You can also use the put mapping operation to update multiple indexes with one request.
```
PUT /<target-index1>,<target-index2>/_mapping
```
## URL parameters
All put mapping parameters are optional.
Parameter | Data Type | Description
:--- | :--- | :---
&lt;target-index&gt; | N/A | Specifies an index with which to associate the mapping. If you do not specify this parameter, OpenSearch adds the mapping to all indexes within the cluster.
allow_no_indices | Boolean | Whether to ignore wildcards that dont match any indexes. Default is `true`.
expand_wildcards | String | Expands wildcard expressions to different indexes. Combine multiple values with commas. Available values are `all` (match all indexes), `open` (match open indexes), `closed` (match closed indexes), `hidden` (match hidden indexes), and `none` (do not accept wildcard expressions), which must be used with `open`, `closed`, or both. Default is `open`.
ignore_unavailable | Boolean | If true, OpenSearch does not include missing or closed indexes in the response.
ignore_malformed | Boolean | Use this parameter with the `ip_range` data type to specify that OpenSearch should ignore malformed fields. If `true`, OpenSearch does not include entries that do not match the IP range specified in the index in the response. The default is `false`.
master_timeout | Time | How long to wait for a connection to the master node. Default is `30s`.
timeout | Time | How long to wait for the response to return. Default is `30s`.
write_index_only | Boolean | Whether OpenSearch should apply mapping updates only to the write index.
## Request body
## Required request body field
The request body must contain `properties`, which has all of the mappings that you want to create or update.

## Response
## Optional query parameters
Optionally, you can add query parameters to make a more specific request. For example, to skip any missing or closed indexes in the response, you can add the `ignore_unavailable` query parameter to your request as follows:
```json
PUT /sample-index/_mapping?ignore_unavailable
```
The following table defines the put mapping query parameters:
Parameter | Data Type | Description
:--- | :--- | :---
allow_no_indices | Boolean | Whether to ignore wildcards that dont match any indexes. Default is `true`.
expand_wildcards | String | Expands wildcard expressions to different indexes. Combine multiple values with commas. Available values are `all` (match all indexes), `open` (match open indexes), `closed` (match closed indexes), `hidden` (match hidden indexes), and `none` (do not accept wildcard expressions), which must be used with `open`, `closed`, or both. Default is `open`.
ignore_unavailable | Boolean | If true, OpenSearch does not include missing or closed indexes in the response.
ignore_malformed | Boolean | Use this parameter with the `ip_range` data type to specify that OpenSearch should ignore malformed fields. If `true`, OpenSearch does not include entries that do not match the IP range specified in the index in the response. The default is `false`.
cluster_manager_timeout | Time | How long to wait for a connection to the cluster manager node. Default is `30s`.
timeout | Time | How long to wait for the response to return. Default is `30s`.
write_index_only | Boolean | Whether OpenSearch should apply mapping updates only to the write index.
#### Sample Request
The following request creates a new mapping for the `sample-index` index:
```json
PUT /sample-index/_mapping
{
"properties": {
"age": {
"type": "integer"
},
"occupation":{
"type": "text"
}
}
}
```
#### Sample Response
Upon success, the response returns `"acknowledged": true`.
```json
{
"acknowledged": true
}
```
