This is in 5.0.0 version of ES and using Java APIs.
I am trying to fetch the last updated time and version of the document in ES. I am able to fetch the version but not the last updated time stamp of the document.
Please help me to do this.

Have a look at the ingest feature. There is a way to set it up to add the
last modified timestamp to the document. Otherwise elasticsearch doesn't
store such a timestamp.
