Field Capabilities APIedit
Allows you to retrieve the capabilities of fields among multiple indices.
GET /_field_caps?fields=rating
Descriptionedit
The field capabilities API returns the information about the capabilities of fields among multiple indices.
Path parametersedit
-
<index>
- (Optional, string) Comma-separated list or wildcard expression of index names used to limit the request.
Query parametersedit
-
allow_no_indices
-
(Optional, boolean) If
true
, the request does not return an error if a wildcard expression or_all
value retrieves only missing or closed indices.This parameter also applies to index aliases that point to a missing or closed index.
Defaults to
true
. -
expand_wildcards
-
(Optional, string) Controls what kind of indices that wildcard expressions can expand to. Multiple values are accepted when separated by a comma, as in
open,hidden
. Valid values are:-
all
- Expand to open and closed indices, including hidden indices.
-
open
- Expand only to open indices.
-
closed
- Expand only to closed indices.
-
hidden
-
Expansion of wildcards will include hidden indices.
Must be combined with
open
,closed
, or both. -
none
- Wildcard expressions are not accepted.
Defaults to
open
. -
-
fields
-
(Optional, string) Comma-separated list or wildcard expressions of fields to include in the statistics.
Used as the default list unless a specific field list is provided in the
completion_fields
orfielddata_fields
parameters. -
ignore_unavailable
-
(Optional, boolean) If
true
, missing or closed indices are not included in the response. Defaults tofalse
. -
include_unmapped
-
(Optional, boolean) If
true
, unmapped fields are included in the response. Defaults tofalse
.
Response bodyedit
-
searchable
- Whether this field is indexed for search on all indices.
-
aggregatable
- Whether this field can be aggregated on all indices.
-
indices
- The list of indices where this field has the same type, or null if all indices have the same type for the field.
-
non_searchable_indices
- The list of indices where this field is not searchable, or null if all indices have the same definition for the field.
-
non_aggregatable_indices
- The list of indices where this field is not aggregatable, or null if all indices have the same definition for the field.
-
meta
- Merged metadata across all indices as a map of string keys to arrays of values. A value length of 1 indicates that all indices had the same value for this key, while a length of 2 or more indicates that not all indices had the same value for this key.
Examplesedit
The request can be restricted to specific indices:
GET twitter/_field_caps?fields=rating
The next example API call requests information about the rating
and the
title
fields:
GET _field_caps?fields=rating,title
The API returns the following response:
{ "indices": ["index1", "index2", "index3", "index4", "index5"], "fields": { "rating": { "long": { "searchable": true, "aggregatable": false, "indices": ["index1", "index2"], "non_aggregatable_indices": ["index1"] }, "keyword": { "searchable": false, "aggregatable": true, "indices": ["index3", "index4"], "non_searchable_indices": ["index4"] } }, "title": { "text": { "searchable": true, "aggregatable": false } } } }

By default unmapped fields are ignored. You can include them in the response by
adding a parameter called include_unmapped
in the request:
GET _field_caps?fields=rating,title&include_unmapped
In which case the response will contain an entry for each field that is present in some indices but not all:
{ "indices": ["index1", "index2", "index3"], "fields": { "rating": { "long": { "searchable": true, "aggregatable": false, "indices": ["index1", "index2"], "non_aggregatable_indices": ["index1"] }, "keyword": { "searchable": false, "aggregatable": true, "indices": ["index3", "index4"], "non_searchable_indices": ["index4"] }, "unmapped": { "indices": ["index5"], "searchable": false, "aggregatable": false } }, "title": { "text": { "indices": ["index1", "index2", "index3", "index4"], "searchable": true, "aggregatable": false }, "unmapped": { "indices": ["index5"] "searchable": false, "aggregatable": false } } } }
