When i am trying to pull the data by using below query, i am getting the parsing\_exception.

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/debuglogs-\*/\_count?pretty](http://localhost:9200/debuglogs-*/_count?pretty)' -d '{"query": { "bool": { "must": [{ "term": { "SessionId": "1492527551776" } }, { "term": { "Filename": "default.log" } }] } }, "stored\_fields" : ["times","level","errormessage"], "sort" : [{ "times" : {"order" : "asc"}}] }'

Ther Error is:

{  
"error" : {  
"root\_cause" : [  
{  
"type" : "parsing\_exception",  
"reason" : "request does not support [stored\_fields]",  
"line" : 1,  
"col" : 128  
}  
],  
"type" : "parsing\_exception",  
"reason" : "request does not support [stored\_fields]",  
"line" : 1,  
"col" : 128  
},  
"status" : 400  
}

The Count API doesn't support "stored\_fields." It also doesn't support "sort." The `_count` endpoint is meant to just provide you with counts, so these parameters wouldn't make senes.

I suspect you want one of two things:

1. You meant to get the individual results back. If that's the case, use `_search` instead of `_count`
2. You meant to only get the count. If that's the case, drop the `stored_fields` and `sort` parameters
