Custom fields for each type

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi,

is it possible to return different source fields for different document types?
or query different fields for different types?

I would like to do something like this but in one request:

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/my-index/MYTYPE1/_search?pretty' -d '{
"_source": [ "MYTYPE1.field1" ],
"min_score": 1,
"query": {
"bool" : {
"must" : {
"query_string" : {
"fields" : ["MYTYPE1.field1"],
"query" : "queryString~*"
}
}
}
}
}
'

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/my-index/MYTYPE2/_search?pretty' -d '{
"_source": [ "MYTYPE2.field1", "MYTYPE2.field2" ],
"min_score": 1,
"query": {
"bool" : {
"must" : {
"query_string" : {
"fields" : ["MYTYPE2.field2"],
"query" : "queryString~*"
}
}
}
}
}
'

Regards, Wojtas

I don't believe you can, no.

You could use the multi search API to do this in one request. It would still be running separate searches on the elasticsearch cluster so you would still get 10 hits per type but you would get the results in a single response. This is probably the closest to what you want that is possible currently
