+Steps to change mapping type by reindexing and alias on a new index (using the kibana tools):
+1 - get the mapping of the original index: GET activityidx/_mapping
+2 - create a json file with the changed mapping
+3 - curl -XPUT localhost:9200/activityidx_v1 -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @index-mapping (using curl)
+4 reindex to the new original to the new one:
+POST _reindex
+{
+  "conflicts": "proceed",
+  "source": {
+    "index": "activityidx"
+  },
+  "dest": {
+    "index": "activityidx_v1"
+  }
+}
+5 - delete the original: DELETE activityidx
+6 - make an alias of activityidx to the new one: 
+POST _aliases
+{
+    "actions": [
+        { "add": {
+            "alias": "activityidx",
+            "index": "activityidx_v1"
+        }}
+    ]
+}
