I am looking for the elegant solution where script can serve the purpose. Some of my conditions are like this :- changing the name of the field, Some script should run as part of the query itself and should return the modified field name. For example Data indexed in elasticsearch :- \_myField=\_myValue I want to change the \_myField to \_newField so the query should be constructed in such a way that response returned by Elasticsearch should have \_newField = \_myValue in the response object. I trying to find the script that can run dynamically that changes this value, but not able to get that. Can anybody help on this scenarios????? 🙂 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
