How to upload JSON to AWS CloudSearch

It seems like I am missing some pretty simple things, but I can't figure out what's a problem here. I want to upload the JSON file which is next:

[{
    "name": "Mark"
}]

After creating an Index field name:

Then I pick Upload Documents on a Dashboard page:

And then I have an error:

Your upload includes 1 document containing the following fields: content content_encoding content_type resourcename

What am I doing wrong?

I am currently trying to use it and I have the same problem.

Try this :

1/ Create a JSON batch to add your data to your search domain

For example :

[
  {
    "type": "add",
    "id": "uniqueid:1",
    "fields": {
        "name": "jack",
    }
  },
  {
    "type": "add",
    "id": "uniqueid:2",
    "fields": {
        "name": "pierre",
    }
  },
  {
    "type": "add",
    "id": "uniqueid:3",
    "fields": {
        "name": "bob",
    }
  }
]

2/ Now go to your domains dashboard and click "upload document" : upload this JSON batch

3/ Go to "run a test search" and try to find "bob" for example : you should have your bob data !

The documentation about the batch : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudsearch/latest/developerguide/preparing-data.html

To upload data to your search domain you need to respect this batch format, look the documentation and the guidelines :)

You can do it too using a bucket that will be use to trigger a lambda function, the idea is : when you will upload a file in the bucket, launch your lambda function to read this file and create a batch file that will add the new data to your index. And when you remove a file : you delete the data to your index !

Look this tutorial if you need some help with the lambda function : https://medium.com/devopslinks/build-your-own-document-search-engine-using-amazon-web-services-82d5b165d96c

Hope it helps !
