Update settings of existing river in Elasticsearch

I created MongoDB river with index in Elasticsearch, but later on noticed that I don't need several fields and I want to use different username/password for river.

How to:
1.Initialize update of river settings for new username/password?
2.Delete/exclude useless fields from index from Elasticsearch without rebuilding whole index from the beginning?

I have like 20-30GB of indexed data and whole process of getting data through river may take long hours. All I found is Delete and PUT, but there's no update for index fields or river mentioned either in docs or in google.

It's not currently possible to remove a field from a mapping. In order to remove all values of a field from all documents, you need to reindex all documents with this field removed.
