Graph with nested datatypes

Hi,

I just wonder if it's possible to do graph queries on documents with nested datatypes?

Thanks,
Tomas Fält

Hi Tomas,
While the query criteria used to seed the exploration can contain nested type clauses the results that we network are currently only terms from the root-level docs.
If this is a problem you could consider using the copy_to [1] in your mapping to put values from nested docs into the root.

Cheers
Mark

Thank you Mark for your prompt reply!

I thought so since nested datatypes don't work directly in Kibana (Nested type aggregations in Kibana and I will look into using copy_to and/or include_in_parent.

Tomas Fält
