Elasticsearch Delete Mapping Property

I am trying to figure out an approach to delete all entries for a specific property in an elasticsearch index and remove all type mappings for that property. I have been looking at the following two doc pages: put mapping and delete mapping From second link: "Allow to delete a mapping (type) along with its data. The REST endpoint is /{index}/{type} with DELETE method." What I think I need is a `/{index}/{type}/{property}`? Do I need to recreate the whole index to accomplish this, i.e. moving and manipulating data between types? For Example, calling GET on the mapping: ``` curl -XGET 'http://.../some_index/some_type/_mapping' ``` result: ``` { "some_type": { "properties": { "propVal1": { "type": "double", "index": "analyzed" }, "propVal2": { "type": "string", "analyzer": "keyword" }, "propVal3": { "type": "string", "analyzer": "keyword" } } } } ``` after this delete operation on `propVal3` would return: ``` curl -XGET 'http://.../some_index/some_type/_mapping' ``` result: ``` { "some_type": { "properties": { "propVal1": { "type": "double", "index": "analyzed" }, "propVal2": { "type": "string", "analyzer": "keyword" } } } } ``` and all data for `propVal3` would be removed through the index.
