GROUP BY geoip.country\_name.keyword

```auto
curl -XPOST 'http://abcd:9200/logstash-2016.12.07/_search?pretty' -d '
{
    "size" : 0,
    "aggs" : {
        "group_country" : {
            "terms": {
              "field" : "geoip.country_name.keyword"
            }
        }
    }
}'

```

I get the following:

```auto

  "took" : 4,
  "timed_out" : false,

    "total" : 5,
    "successful" : 5,

  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : 22442144,
    "max_score" : 0.0,
    "hits" : []
  },
  "aggregations" : {
    "group_country" : {
      "doc_count_error_upper_bound" : 94011,
      "sum_other_doc_count" : 4513408,
      "buckets" : [
        {
          "key" : "United States",
          "doc_count" : 8504290
        },
        {
          "key" : "China",
          "doc_count" : 1810752
        },
        {
          "key" : "Japan",
          "doc_count" : 1101575
        },
        {
          "key" : "United Kingdom",
          "doc_count" : 669897
        },
        {
          "key" : "Germany",
          "doc_count" : 646917
        },
        {
          "key" : "Republic of Korea",
          "doc_count" : 599331
        },
        {
          "key" : "France",
          "doc_count" : 445700
        },
        {
          "key" : "Brazil",
          "doc_count" : 441536
        },

**How can I get next buckets?**

This is not working.

```auto
curl -XPOST 'http://abcd:9200/logstash-2016.12.07/_search?pretty' -d '
{
    "size" : 0,
    "aggs" : {
        "group_country" : {
            "terms": {
              "field" : "geoip.country_name.keyword"
            },
           "size" : 20
        }
    }
}'

```

I got error result.

```auto
{
  "error" : {
    "root_cause" : [
      {
        "type" : "parsing_exception",
        "reason" : "Expected [START_OBJECT] under [size], but got a [VALUE_NUMBER] in [group_country]",
        "line" : 9,
        "col" : 22
      }
    ],
    "type" : "parsing_exception",
    "reason" : "Expected [START_OBJECT] under [size], but got a [VALUE_NUMBER] in [group_country]",
    "line" : 9,
    "col" : 22
  },
  "status" : 400
}

```

And setting size to 0 will return you all of the buckets, but be careful with that.
