I'm using the Ruby gem Tire to communicate with ElasticSearch. I have setup a mapping for my users index. However, I want certain fields to be excluded from the "\_all" field so that that field doesn't creep into my results. I'm using the setting "include\_in\_all", but for some fields it doesn't seem to be honoring that. Is there a command like "\_mapping" where I can either view the \_all field, or see which fields go into it on the server side? ---

Yes, you can issue a get mapping API and see how things are "actually" mapped on ES side.

I'm familiar with the \_mapping API, however, it doesn't show the \_all field which is what I was curious about. Is there another way to see it or see what it mapped to it?

The \_mapping API should show the \_all field, if it doesn't show it, it means that it uses the defaults (i.e. was not set).
