Answer 1

As a codebased contribution to this answer, the following query may be used:

POST /index/type/100100471/_update {     "doc" : {         "yourProperty" : 10000     } } 

This query updates yourProperty property only.

As a result, this response appears:

{    "_index": "index",    "_type": "type",    "_id": "100100471",    "_version": 1,    "_shards": {       "total": 0,       "successful": 1,       "failed": 0    } }
