Hello All, I am trying to run a query which returns only the id's for a given index without the source but I am unable to do it. I try with a query like this: { "fields": [ "price", "\_id" ], "\_source": { "enabled": false }, "query": { "match\_all": {} } } I know that I can disable the source field generally but we need it for other queries. ---

Hi Jürgen It's a long time ago, but nice to meet you here again! Let me know if you need an elasticsearch stub server setup for python unit testing!

Thanks Jürgen, I actually tried fields but was putting it inside the query, the following worked: curl -XGET [http://localhost:9200/giftsplusindex/giftsplusproduct/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost:9200/giftsplusindex/giftsplusproduct/_search?pretty=true) -d '{ "fields" : ["id", "price"], "query" : { "match\_all": {} } }' On Aug 12, 3:33 pm, "Roger" [d...@projekt01.ch](mailto:d...@projekt01.ch) wrote: > Hi Jürgen > > It's a long time ago, but nice to meet you here again! > > Let me know if you need an elasticsearch stub server setup > for python unit testing! > > Regards > Roger Ineichen > > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > > Von: [elasticsearch@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch@googlegroups.com) > > [[mailto:elasticsearch@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch@googlegroups.com)] Im > > > Auftrag von Jürgen kartnaller > > Gesendet: Freitag, 12.
