Hi,  
I am running some template search queries on 1.4.2 via Java APIs like so:

esClient.prepareSearch(index)  
.setTemplateName(templateName)  
.setTemplateParams(templateParams)  
.setTemplateType(ScriptService.ScriptType.INDEXED)

When I log the request, I get an empty json object. Is it possible to dump  
the the actual evaluated query from the node client? I dug through the code  
and it looks to me the template is evaluated in SearchService.java, but  
didn't see a clean way to extract that out.

I am pretty sure I can logs this out server side, but was hoping to get  
this info from the caller.

Thanks!  
Paul
