Save space avoid indexing fields

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Dear all,
I am an ELK newbie and I am just wondering if i can save space on my index if I don't create any full text capability on my string field.

How can I accomplish this task?

Thanks
Rob

You can totally disable indexing if you absolutely don't want to do anything with à field (sorting, aggregation). Or you can define the field as a keyword data type.

Thanks, I have found a nice way using both keyword data type than a mix of inlcude_in_all and store settings
