I try to using JAVA API to query elasticsearch , but return results not include @timestamp value , and i found the result is shown "message"

SearchResponse response = client.prepareSearch("logstash-_")  
.setTypes("log")  
.setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH)  
.setQuery(QueryBuilders.queryStringQuery("value").field("name_"))// Query  
.setFrom(0).setSize(60).setExplain(true).execute()  
.actionGet();  
how to get the "\_source" and @timestamp into array and print out ? Please help me out.

try this.

```
SearchHit[] hits = response.getHits().getHits();
 for (int i = 0; i < hits.length; i++) {
 hits[i].getSourceAsString()
}

```

if you dont have any special config in index prevent auto create source. .getSourceAsString() can print it .
