How to do it...

We can extend the previous mapping by adding document-related settings, as follows:

PUT test/_mapping
{
    "dynamic_date_formats":["yyyy-MM-dd", "dd-MM-yyyy"],\
    "date_detection":true,
    "numeric_detection":true,
    "dynamic_templates":[
      {"template1":{
        "match":"*",
        "match_mapping_type":"long",
        "mapping":{"type":" {dynamic_type}", "store":true}
      }}    ],
    "properties" : {...}
}
