Hi guys I'm trying to do a term facet query over a nested object but I haven't been able to make it work. I was wondering if someone can give me some insights on my mistake? I've gisted here [https://gist.github.com/3407734](https://gist.github.com/3407734) but I always got zero term facets. I've done other facets many times but seems that there's a trick on this one. Thanks -- ---

There is not a single feed with data in the field - educationHistory.nameFacet Thanks Vineeth On Wed, Aug 22, 2012 at 6:49 PM, maverick [mauricio.alarcon@gmail.com](mailto:mauricio.alarcon@gmail.com)wrote: > Bump!.. nobody? c'mon guys > > On Monday, August 20, 2012 5:12:31 PM UTC-4, maverick wrote: > > > Hi guys > > > > I'm trying to do a term facet query over a nested object but I haven't > > been able to make it work.

Thanks Vineeth, actually there is one, check the mapping, is a multi\_field one of them is "name" the other is "nameFacet" that is analyzed with "keyword" analyzer.. In any case, not even the educationHistory.name works Any other ideas?

Your mapping is incorrect. The first field in the JSON mapping refers to the type (which is redundant given the URL, but that's how it is). Take a look at the PUT mapping example: > **[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale](https://www.elastic.co)** > > Power insights and outcomes with the Elasticsearch Platform and AI. See into your data and find answers that matter with enterprise solutions designed to help you build, observe, and protect. Try Elasticsearch free today. Also, your mapping redefines employmentHistory but the facet is on educationHistory.

Ivan, Thank you very much, I fixed part of it with your help. It still needs some other tune up.. I'll post again with the current issue Cheers On Wednesday, August 22, 2012 1:51:42 PM UTC-4, Ivan Brusic wrote: > Your mapping is incorrect.
