Hi all, I am using the nested object. There is strange behavior of field in nested object. All sample mapping and data : [https://gist.github.com/johtani/9183848](https://gist.github.com/johtani/9183848) 1. \_source store 2. book.title is not stored 3. book.contents is stored If fields parameter specify “book.title” and “book.contents”, I get only “book.title”. This data is returned from \_source. Why did not return “book.contents”? Should I use \_source instead of store=“true" ?
