Java API: client.prepareGet and parent documents

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi!

this is my mapping:

{
"connection": {
properties: {
state: {type: "string", index: "not_analyzed",
include_in_all: false},
groupid: {type: "string", index: "not_analyzed",
include_in_all: false},
tags: {type: "string", index_name: "tag", index:
"not_analyzed", include_in_all: false}
},
_parent: {type: "company"}
}
}

when i try to retrieve a document using the JAVA API:

GetResponse response = client.prepareGet(indexName, 'connection',
'id').execute().actionGet();

i only get the fields of connection and not the ones of company!

any hint?

Thanks
Niccoló

You need to fetch the company as well. You can ask for the _parent field
from the child doc, and use that id to fetch the parent document.

I'm having issues finging the parentId

this is the map i get when executing response.getSource():

{tags=, groupid=210dc7b0-1cbd-4320-a044-5061318c12d4}

any hint?
thanks

You need to explicitly ask for the _parent field when you get the doc. The
type is not provided since its part of the mapping..., though, you can ask
for the mapping.
