Hi, I'm using the below method to get results from ES. But search hit result is 0. Please let me know the correct way to get results, public static SearchResponse searchIndex(Client client, Node node) { SearchRequestBuilder srequest = client.prepareSearch("testindex").setTypes("testtype") .setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH) .setQuery(QueryBuilders.termQuery("author", "shay")) .setSize(1); SearchResponse sresp = srequest.execute().actionGet(); return sresp; } data ==\> - "\_source":{ - "tags":[ - "elasticsearch" ], - "content":"ElasticSearch provides the Java API", - "author":"Shay Banon", - "title":"ElasticSearch: Java API", - "postDate":"2014-03-21T09:32:34.782Z" } Thanks, Subhadip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
