Hello, i am trying to analyze an index which contains a field id and messageanalyze having text data. when i try to get response from the below url, it returns tokens for the text parmeter and not the messageanalyze field specified. how can i get the response back for the field instead of the text as it isnt accepting the query without text parameter which is mandatory. URL trying to get the message tokens: [http://localhost:9200/myindex/\_analyze?field=messageanalyze&analyzer=standard&text=](http://localhost:9200/myindex/_analyze?field=messageanalyze&analyzer=standard&text=)"this is a text" response: {"tokens":[{"token":"this","start\_offset":1,"end\_offset":5,"type":"","position":0},{"token":"is","start\_offset":6,"end\_offset":8,"type":"","position":1},{"token":"a","start\_offset":9,"end\_offset":10,"type":"","position":2},{"token":"text","start\_offset":11,"end\_offset":15,"type":"","position":3}]} ---
