I am running ES version 7.10. What is the query to get all docs where \_ignored field exists and lists the value?

Hi, I wasn't sure what to put as my source so it returns the \_ignored value:
```auto
GET _search
{
"query": {
"exists": {
"field": "_ignored"
}
}
"source": "???"
}
```

You need to run a query to get all the documents where the `_ignored` field exists.
For example, the following query will query your indices and return the documents where the `_ignored` field exists.
```auto
GET */_search
{
"query": {
"exists": {
"field": "_ignored"
}
},
"_source": false
}
```
You will get something like this as an answer:
```auto
{
"took": 4,
"timed_out": false,
"_shards": {
"total": 4,
"successful": 4,
"skipped": 0,
"failed": 0
},
"hits": {
"total": {
"value": 1,
"relation": "eq"
},
"max_score": 1,
"hits": [
{
"_index": "index-name",
"_id": "document-id",
"_score": 1,
"_ignored": [
"field.name"
]
}
]
}
}
```
The `field.name` is the **name** of the field that was ignored during indexing, to get its value you would need to return the entire document or filter the return by this field, but since you may not always no the name of the field being ignored you may need to return the entire document.
To return the entire document just use this:
```auto
GET */_search
{
"query": {
"exists": {
"field": "_ignored"
}
}
}
```
To filter by the ignored field just use:
```auto
{
"query": {
"exists": {
"field": "_ignored"
}
},
"fields": [
"field.name"
],
"_source": false
}
```
