iam trying to get search response this way as i need to get all the location where this file is stored :
client = new PreBuiltTransportClient(settings).addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName("address"), 9300)); QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.boolQuery().must(QueryBuilders.termQuery("file.filename", "J.K.Rowling- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.txt"));
SearchResponse scrollResp = client.prepareSearch("ftp\_folder")
.addSort(FieldSortBuilder.DOC\_FIELD\_NAME, SortOrder.ASC)
.setScroll(new TimeValue(60000))
.setQuery(qb)
.setSize(100).execute().actionGet();
System.out.println("scrollResp"+scrollResp);
```
but the response format that iam getting is : {"took":307,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":38,"max_score":2.5529227,"hits":[{"_index":"ftp_public","_type":"doc","_id":"b8f8207a434a4dfc7221a5a4a8a6c3c","_score":2.5529227,"_source":{
```
"root" : "9f3dcd97c4ec315fa645bcdc815e4",
"virtual" : "/English/Listening /headway beginner",
"real" : "\\ftp\ftp\Public\English\Listening\headway beginner"
}},{"\_index":"ftp\_public","\_type":"doc","\_id":"e1fab4a16772714c36138a2dbf31b3e4","\_score":2.5529227,"\_source":{
"root" : "9f3dcd97c4ec315fa645bcdc815e4",
is this the correct way how iam querying my search ? as i dont think that iam getting the correct response .

First, please, format provided code and json to be readable.
Your query is a TermQuery applied to the field named "file.filename", searching for "J.K.Rowling- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
```
addSort(FieldSortBuilder.DOC_FIELD_NAME, SortOrder.ASC)
```
First param must be the fieldname in your index used to sort. I don't think FieldSortBuilder.DOC\_FIELD\_NAME can be used.
```
is this the correct way how iam querying my search ? as i dont think that iam getting the correct response .
```
If you provide the mapping and what you want to search, we'ill be able to help you. For now it is a little fuzzy...

Hi ,
what iam trying here is ,the documents are already indexed on elastic search server and i need to write a search query to get those documents as a result on based of the query hit . iam trying with the below code
client = new PreBuiltTransportClient(settings).addTransportAddress(new InetSocketTransportAddress(InetAddress.getByName("host"), 9300));
```
QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.termQuery("file.filename", "hary potter");
SearchResponse scrollResp = client.prepareSearch("ftp_public_fscrawler")
.setScroll(new TimeValue(60000))
.setQuery(qb)
.setSize(100).execute().actionGet();
while (true) {
//Break condition: No hits are returned
if (scrollResp.getHits().getHits().length == 0) {
break;
}
for (SearchHit hit : scrollResp.getHits().getHits()) {
JSONObject value = new JSONObject(hit.getSource());
```
but iam not able to get search response in proper json format .

1°/ Do you get response your are looking for ? Do you have SearchHit in your for loop ?
2°/ What do you expect to have when you write :

1°/ Do you have a document named "J.K.Rowling- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.txt" ? Is it the one you are expected for ?
2°/ What is the mapping for the field: file.filename ?
> [@Neetu](#):

To retrieve a field from a hit you can use :
```
String virtual = (String)hit.getSource().get("virtual")
```

yes i have this document and i want this to come in search response but if u will check the json response posted above i cant see that to be there . how can i get other fields like source,content from searchquery .
i have tried String virtual = (String)hit.getSource().get("virtual") which is giving me folder location .

Your responses are a little confused...
1°/ There is no reason for your document not to be in results with the following query, if the field file.filename exists
```
QueryBuilder qb = QueryBuilders.termQuery("file.filename", "harry potter Stone");
```
2°/
> [@Neetu](#):

You can retrieve all indexed fields using hit.getSource().get(“you\_fieldname");
Please, if you want more help, provide more details, well formated.
