Is there something like a highlight payload?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

In my mapping I have an array with objects of comments.

"comments": {
"properties": {
"text": {
"type": "string"
},
"autor": {
"type": "string"
}
}
}

When I now search for comment texts I would like to also get the matching
autor. Is there a way to include the autor in the highlight array?

...
"highlight": {
"comments.text": [
"this is a test"
]
}
...

Not really, you'd need to index every comment as a separate document
yourself. Then each hit would be a comment, and for each comment you get
the highlighted snippet as well.

Thanks Luca. Considering I am using a parent/child mapping with the
comments as child. Is it possible to get both - parent with embeded
comments and highlighting - with one search request?

I don't think so. At this time with parent-child it's only possible to get
back one of the two, either parent or children. I guess you need two
requests here....

Is a highlight payload technical possible at all? I mean, could it be a
feature request? Or will there be other solutions for problems like this
anytime?
Thanks
