I have index1 and index2. Running below query against Index1 where i point to index2. In indexs those fields created with stored option. Please help on this query.

```auto
POST /Index1/_search
{
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "filter": [
                {
			"terms" : {
			"PID" : {
			     "index" : "Index2",
				  "type" : "_doc",
				  "id" : "1123",
				  "path" : "field1",
				  "stored": true
				}
			}
		}
    ]
  }
 }
}

```

**ERROR** : :{"type":"x\_content\_parse\_exception","reason":"[12:17] [terms\_lookup] unknown field [stored]"}

That sounds a lot like a join, which Elasticsearch generally do not support.

What does the data in the two indices look like and how are you looking to merge them?
