I put geo\_shape data
PUT test/landmark/dam\_square1
{
"name" : "Dam Square, Amsterdam",
"location" : {
"type" : "polygon",
"coordinates" : [[
[4.89218, 52.37356],
[4.89205, 52.37276],
[4.89301, 52.37274],
[4.89392, 52.37250],
[4.89431, 52.37287],
[4.89331, 52.37346],
[4.89305, 52.37326],
[4.89218, 52.37356]
]]
}
}
and then after i search using
POST test/landmark/\_search
{
"query":{
"bool": {
"must": {
"match\_all": {}
},
"filter": {
"geo\_shape": {
"location": {
"shape": {
"type": "Polygon",
"coordinates" : [[ 4.89392, 52.37250],
[4.89431, 52.37287],
[4.89331, 52.37346]]
},
"relation": "within"
}
}
}
}
}
}
and i got this type of error.
{
"error": {
"root\_cause": [
{
"type": "query\_parsing\_exception",
"reason": "No query registered for [geo\_shape]",
"index": "test",
"line": 8,
"col": 17
}
],
"type": "search\_phase\_execution\_exception",
"reason": "all shards failed",
"phase": "query",
"grouped": true,
"failed\_shards": [
{
"shard": 0,
"index": "test",
"node": "tYWj-d2wSlOtjN5xiGD3jg",
"reason": {
"type": "query\_parsing\_exception",
"reason": "No query registered for [geo\_shape]",
"index": "test",
"line": 8,

}
}
]
},
"status": 400
}
