+ ==== Limits for JSON Objects
95
+ You can't use `ignore_malformed` with the following datatypes:
96
+
97
+ * <<nested, Nested datatype>>
98
+ * <<object, Object datatype>>
99
+ * <<range, Range datatypes>>
100
+
101
+ You also can't use `ignore_malformed` to ignore JSON objects submitted to fields
102
+ of the wrong datatype. A JSON object is any data surrounded by curly brackets
103
+ `"{}"` and includes data mapped to the nested, object, and range datatypes.
104
+
105
+ If you submit a JSON object to an unsupported field, {es} will return an error
106
+ and reject the entire document regardless of the `ignore_malformed` setting.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
