Hi community,

I'm wondering how it is possible to specify the returned fields for my query with Kibana Discover.

Actually I'm looking for doing the same thing as this Elasticsearch query:  
curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/rje/\_search?pretty=true&q="RAPPORT"&](http://localhost:9200/rje/_search?pretty=true&q=%22RAPPORT%22&) **fields=title**' -d

Does someone knows how to do the same with Kibana ?

Kibana uses Lucene query syntax for the Discover search bar. You can learn how to create queries [here](https://lucene.apache.org/core/2_9_4/queryparsersyntax.html).

Thanks for your feedback but it doesn't really answer my question. I'm not looking for the way to filter the results but rather how to exclude fields of the index in the results. To be more specific I want to exclude the binary file content in the results as these data take too much time to display and are not very useful for the end user.

If you are doing this in Discover, then just create a specific search without that field and then save it.
