Hi, I am facing a problem with using "\_source":{ "exclude": ["title"] } in my elastic query. Whenever I use this, my properties in the "\_source" get shuffled. What am I doing wrong? Example: ## Without "\_source":{ "exclude": ["title"] } "\_source":{ "title" : ... "prop1" : ... "prop2" : ... "prop3" : ... "prop4" : ... } ## Without "\_source":{ "exclude": ["title"] } "\_source":{ "prop3" : ... "prop1" : ... "prop4" : ... "prop2" : ... } ## Expected: "\_source":{ "prop1" : ... "prop2" : ... "prop3" : ... "prop4" : ... } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
