Hi, I need to search in huge amount of indexed documents and get relevant documents names into client app. I suppose result will have about milions of documents. I need result to contain docs names only, not all content. I did it using filter\_path feature via REST api. Is it possible implement it using Java TransportClient? I found no alternative to REST filter\_path option when reading Java TransportClient documenation. Thanks for any advice. ---
