Customize JSON response

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,
Is it possible to cutomize the JSON response, so that I get only the hit
information, and not the metadata?
For example, I would like to exclude the following section from the
response:
{
"took" : 375,
"timed_out" : false,
"_shards" : {
"total" : 3,
"successful" : 3,
"failed" : 0
},

Please let me know if this can be achieved. Thanks!!

I need to transform the response, so that I can render it in my view. It
would like to know if exclusion of metadata can be done.

What kind of client are you using that you can't transform the JSON on
the client side?

There isn't an option to transform the response on elasticsearch side.
