Hi,

I am tryng a very simple code to search on attachment file but I have no result for my query.  
To semplify my test I have replicate exactly the code on the plugin page:

> **[elastic/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-mapper-attachments)**
>
> elasticsearch-mapper-attachments - Mapper Attachments Type plugin for Elasticsearch

I follow step by step the code on "Querying or accessing metadata" paragraph but it doesn't return any match.

The plugin is correctly installed and a simple \_search in the index works (I see Base64 file).

Can you help me?

Thanks  
Davide

Solved!  
The version of mapper-attachment plugin was wrong!
