I'm trying to setup highlights when creating an index. How do we do that in Elastic 6.0 + version?

i wasnt able to find any help article for configuring highlights on certain fields like content?

I have a couple of fields like "Content", "FileName" which i want to highlight. How do i set it up in Elastic 6.0?  
thanks
