passing number parameter to ElasticSearch

Hi,

I'm trying to pass a parameter "FileSize" containing a number to Elastic Search. When seeing it in Kibana it's a text field. Any idea how this could be changed to number?

Thanks,
Stefan

Hi @Lemmy321,

By default the plugin will send the parameter as text, as you've seen. I'll have to look into changing that. In the meantime though, you would probably be able to change the type of the field by making a REST call to the ElasticSearch API.

See https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/mapping.html for more information.

Thanks,

Released a new version (not yet deployed to JMeter-Plugins or Maven). You can download it here 😄 !

Just make sure you delete the old version before!
