AUTO CREATE INDEX SETTING getKey – How to solve this Elasticsearch exception

Opster Team

August-23, Version: 7-7.15

Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch tries to automatically create an index that doesn’t exist, but the auto-create index setting is disabled. This setting is often disabled to prevent accidental creation of unwanted indices. To resolve this issue, you can either enable the auto-create index setting by setting it to true, or manually create the index before trying to index documents into it. Alternatively, you can specify a pattern of indices for which auto-creation should be allowed, while keeping it disabled for others.
