[[mapping-index]]
=== `index`
The `index` option controls how field values are indexed and, thus, how they
are searchable. It accepts three values:
[horizontal]
`no`::
Do not add this field value to the index. With this setting, the field
will not be queryable.
`not_analyzed`::
Add the field value to the index unchanged, as a single term. This is the
default for all fields that support this option except for
<<string,`string`>> fields. `not_analyzed` fields are usually used with
<<term-level-queries,term-level queries>> for structured search.
`analyzed`::
This option applies only to `string` fields, for which it is the default.
The string field value is first <<analysis,analyzed>> to convert the
string into terms (e.g. a list of individual words), which are then
indexed. At search time, the the query string is passed through
(<<search-analyzer,usually>>) the same analyzer to generate terms
in the same format as those in the index. It is this process that enables
<<full-text-queries,full text search>>.
For example, you can create a `not_analyzed` string field with the following:
