Request fields

The following table lists the available request fields.

Field Data type Required/Optional Description
index_name String Required The index name.
field_map Object Required Maps fields from the source file to specific fields in an OpenSearch index for ingestion.
ingest_fields Array Optional Lists fields from the source file that should be ingested directly into the OpenSearch index without any additional mapping.
credential Object Required Contains the authentication information for accessing external data sources, such as Amazon S3 or OpenAI.
data_source Object Required Specifies the type and location of the external file(s) from which the data is ingested.
data_source.type String Required Specifies the type of the external data source. Valid values are s3 and openAI.
data_source.source Array Required Specifies one or more file locations from which the data is ingested. For s3, specify the file path to the Amazon S3 bucket (for example, ["s3://offlinebatch/output/sagemaker_batch.json.out"]). For openAI, specify the file IDs for input or output files (for example, ["file-<your output file id>", "file-<your input file id>", "file-<your other file>"]).
