Select Elasticsearch in the list and configure the connection.

Select your engine from the list and set the main and advanced settings.

Connection settings
Property	Configuration
Nodes	Enter the location of the cluster hosting the Elasticsearch system to be used.
Use Authentication	If the Elasticsearch system to be used requires authentication information, toggle this option ON and enter the credentials.

After configuring the connection, give it a display name (mandatory) and a description (optional).

Dataset configuration
Property		Configuration
Dataset name		Enter a display name for the dataset. This name will be used as a unique identifier of the dataset in all Talend Cloud apps.
Connection		Select your connection in the list. If you are creating a dataset based on an existing connection, this field is read-only.

Dataset settings
Property	Configuration
Index	Enter the name of the index you want to read documents from. An index is the largest unit of storage in the Elastisearch system.
Type	Enter the name of the type the documents to be read belong to. For example, `blogpost_en` and `blogpost_fr` can be two types that represent given English blog posts and French blog posts, respectively. You can dynamically use the values of a given column to be document types. If you need to do so, enter the name of that column into a pair of braces (`{}`), for example, `{blog_author}`.
