How to use

1 - Select your file and sheet

2 - Configure

- If you want to define your own mapping, you have to use an index name which doesn't already exist.
- Index name must be all lower case.

Use your own mapping

For every field you can choose the type and apply more options with the advanced JSON.
The list of parameters can be found here, https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/mapping-params.html

Use a custom Kibana ID

To create a custom Kibana ID with your field values you can use a template with placeholder {fieldname}.
In our example, if I use the following template {ID}-{Nom} this will lead us to the following ID for the first document :

• 1-Toto

You're done !

Advanced settings

In the kibana advanced setting you can find those parameters
