Hello, I have the following document: [someemail@email.com](mailto:someemail@email.com) I index the above document relying on dynamic mappings. First I set an initial mapping as : { "index1" : { "date\_detection":false, "properties": { "basic": { "type": nested } } } } I try to search for this document using the following nested filter: NestedFilterBuilder filterBasic = new NestedFilterBuilder("basic", QueryBuilders.fieldQuery("basic.content", "someemail@email.com")) When I print out the mappings (after indexing) I get the following: {"requests":{"date\_detection":false,"properties":{"basic":{"type":"nested","properties":{"contact":{"type":"string"}}}}}} I get no results (with elastic search v. 0.90.0). Is the filter incorrect for the mapping provided? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Are you sure you don't want to be using: NestedFilterBuilder filterBasic = new NestedFilterBuilder("basic", QueryBuilders.fieldQuery("basic.contact", "[some...@email.com](mailto:some...@email.com)")) On Monday, February 3, 2014 12:10:09 PM UTC-5, Andra Bennett wrote: > Hello, > > I have the following document: > > [some...@email.com](mailto:some...@email.com) \ > > I index the above document relying on dynamic mappings. > > First I set an initial mapping as : > > { > "index1" : > { > "date\_detection":false, > "properties": > { > "basic": > { > "type": nested > } > } > } > } > > I try to search for this document using the following nested filter: > > NestedFilterBuilder filterBasic = new NestedFilterBuilder("basic", > QueryBuilders.fieldQuery("basic.content", "[some...@email.com](mailto:some...@email.com) \ > ")) > > When I print out the mappings (after indexing) I get the following: > > {"requests":{"date\_detection":false,"properties":{"basic":{"type":"nested","properties":{"contact":{"type":"string"}}}}}} > > I get no results (with Elasticsearch v. 0.90.0). > > Is the filter incorrect for the mapping provided? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Same issue with the nested filter - returns no results. I actually played around with removing the nested type from the mapping, and that's how I got to write the plain filter On Monday, February 3, 2014 12:10:09 PM UTC-5, Andra Bennett wrote: > Hello, > > I have the following document: > > [someemail@email.com](mailto:someemail@email.com) > > I index the above document relying on dynamic mappings. > > First I set an initial mapping as : > > { > "index1" : > { > "date\_detection":false, > "properties": > { > "basic": > { > "type": nested > } > } > } > } > > I try to search for this document using the following nested filter: > > NestedFilterBuilder filterBasic = new NestedFilterBuilder("basic", > QueryBuilders.fieldQuery("basic.content", "[someemail@email.com](mailto:someemail@email.com)")) > > When I print out the mappings (after indexing) I get the following: > > {"requests":{"date\_detection":false,"properties":{"basic":{"type":"nested","properties":{"contact":{"type":"string"}}}}}} > > I get no results (with Elasticsearch v. 0.90.0). > > Is the filter incorrect for the mapping provided? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
