You can simply add the mapping in the create call like this: from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch self.elastic_con = Elasticsearch([host], verify_certs=True) mapping = ”’ { “mappings”:{ “logs_june”:{ “_timestamp”:{ “enabled”:”true” }, “properties”:{ “logdate”:{ “type”:”date”, “format”:”dd/MM/yyy HH:mm:ss” } } } } }”’ self.elastic_con.indices.create(index=’test-index’, ignore=400, body=mapping)
