changing text type to object type fails on unsupported parameters

I have an index on elastic-search 6.5.1 with a field data that It's current type is text. it contains a Json string.

I'm trying to change the type of the field to object but getting an error

PUT my-index/_mapping/doc

{

  "mappings": {

    "doc": { 

      "properties": { 

        "data": { 

          "type": "object"

        }

      }

    }

  }

}

But I'm getting an error with root_cause:

{

    "type": "mapper_parsing_exception",

    "reason": "Root mapping definition has unsupported parameters:  [mappings : {doc={properties={data={type=object}}}}]"

 }

I searched the web regarding this error, But the only answers I found are syntax errors, Which I don't think I have (Hope)

Is it the correct approach? - changing text type to object type in order to get "real" indexed json?. Is there another data type that I should use instead? If not, Why getting this error?
