I have a mapping that looks something like this:

"source": {  
"properties": {  
"description": {  
"type": "string",  
"index": "not\_analyzed",  
"omit\_norms": true,  
"index\_options": "docs"  
},  
"id": {  
"type": "string",  
"index": "not\_analyzed",  
"omit\_norms": true,  
"index\_options": "docs"  
},  
"name": {  
"type": "string",  
"boost": 3.0,  
"analyzer": "snowball"  
}  
}  
}

However when running the following query:

{"query" :  
{"match" :  
{"\_all" : "test phrase"}  
}  
}

I don't get the results returned from this query:

{"query" :  
{"match" :  
{"source.name" : "test phrase"}  
}  
}

How do I get the '\_all' query to match on a subfield?

Thank you for any help,  
Stefanie

Hey,

from my birds eye view this should work. Can you create a fully fledged  
example (including index creation, mapping creation, document creation), so  
one can replay this. And tell your ES version along, if you have any  
special configuration going on.
