While dealing with ELastic Search documents, you faced this issue while updating document:
ElasticSearch: Validation Failed: 1: script or doc is missing;Reason
When you insert documents to ElasticSearch, you write something like: ``` { index: 'your_index_name', type: 'your_type', body: { title: 'this is my sample title', createdAt: 'some_date' }, refresh: true } ```But, when you want to update the documents. There is a slight change in json. See example:
{
index: 'your_index_name',
type: 'your_type',
id: 'document_id',
body: {
doc: {
title: 'this is my sample title',
createdAt: 'some_date'
}
},
refresh: true
}Notice the extra “doc” in there. Generally, users tend to put json without “doc”, and it caused this error.
Enjoy!
