Hey 👋 Is it somehow possible to change a collection field from

string[]

to

int32[]

? Trying ended in a Bad-Request response and a Cluster saying " Another collection update operation is in progress." The field has valid

int

values:

categories: ["1", "2", ...]

Another solution would be to delete the field from the collection. Dropping the field from the collection does not delete the field from documents, so the next question would be: How can i drop the field in all documents? I could not found something inside the documentation. Thanks!

Your first alter request is being processed. Since it takes so time to do it, your client could timeout but the actual operation will be in process.

It took more than 8 hours until i canceled it. Other requests take round about 1-3 seconds

Perhaps there was an unhandled error. Please use the latest 0.27 RC build which has added some guards for this.

I'm pretty sure there was an unhandled error. After sending the request I immediantly got a Bad Request response. And the cluster told me a collection update would be in process.
