==== Put Mapping

The PUT mapping API allows you to add a new type while creating an index:

[source,java]
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
client.admin().indices().prepareCreate("twitter") <1>
.addMapping("tweet", "{\n" + <2>
" \"tweet\": {\n" +
" \"properties\": {\n" +
" \"message\": {\n" +
" \"type\": \"text\"\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
" }")
.get();
include-tagged::{base-dir}/CreateIndexIT.java[addMapping-create-index-request]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> <<java-admin-indices-create-index,Creates an index>> called `twitter`
<2> It also adds a `tweet` mapping type.


The PUT mapping API also allows to add a new type to an existing index:

[source,java]
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
client.admin().indices().preparePutMapping("twitter") <1>
.setType("user") <2>
.setSource("{\n" + <3>
" \"properties\": {\n" +
" \"name\": {\n" +
" \"type\": \"text\"\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
"}")
.get();

// You can also provide the type in the source document
client.admin().indices().preparePutMapping("twitter")
.setType("user")
.setSource("{\n" +
" \"user\":{\n" + <4>
" \"properties\": {\n" +
" \"name\": {\n" +
" \"type\": \"text\"\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
"}")
.get();

You can use the same API to update an existing mapping:

[source,java]
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
client.admin().indices().preparePutMapping("twitter") <1>
.setType("user") <2>
.setSource("{\n" + <3>
" \"properties\": {\n" +
" \"user_name\": {\n" +
" \"type\": \"text\"\n" +
" }\n" +
" }\n" +
"}")
.get();
include-tagged::{base-dir}/CreateIndexIT.java[putMapping-request-source-append]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Puts a mapping on existing index called `twitter`
<2> Updates the `user` mapping type.
<3> This `user` has now a new field `user_name`
