💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Placing the wildcard before 'app-' instead of after.

Not including the dash '-' in the pattern.

The pattern 'app-*' matches all indices starting with 'app-'.

"settings": {
  "number_of_replicas": [1]
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a string instead of a number for replicas.

Using boolean values instead of numbers.

The number_of_replicas setting expects an integer value, so 2 without quotes is correct.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to add a mapping for a 'timestamp' field of type 'date'.

Elasticsearch

"mappings": {
  "properties": {
    "timestamp": {
      "type": "[1]",
      "format": "[2]"
    }
  }
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Adate

Cstrict_date_optional_time

Dkeyword

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'text' or 'keyword' types for date fields.

Omitting the format or using incorrect format strings.

The 'timestamp' field should be of type 'date' with format 'strict_date_optional_time' for proper date parsing.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a template with priority 10, matching indices starting with 'metrics-', and setting refresh interval to 30s.

Elasticsearch

{
  "index_patterns": ["[1]"],
  "priority": [2],
  "template": {
    "settings": {
      "refresh_interval": "[3]"
    }
  }
}

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Ametrics-*

B10

C30s

Dlogs-*

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using wrong index pattern or missing wildcard.

Putting priority in quotes.

Setting refresh_interval without quotes.

The index pattern is 'metrics-*', priority is 10 as a number, and refresh_interval is '30s' as a string.
