indexes the size in bytes of the original
{ref}/mapping-source-field.html[`_source`] field.

[[mapper-size-usage]]
==== Using the `_size` field
In order to enable the `_size` field, set the mapping as follows:
[source,console]
--------------------------
PUT my_index
{
"mappings": {
"_size": {
"enabled": true
}
}
}
--------------------------
The value of the `_size` field is accessible in queries, aggregations, scripts,
and when sorting:
[source,console]
--------------------------
# Example documents
PUT my_index/_doc/1
{
"text": "This is a document"
}
PUT my_index/_doc/2
{
"text": "This is another document"
}
GET my_index/_search
{
"query": {
"range": {
"_size": { <1>
"gt": 10
}
}
},
"aggs": {
"sizes": {
"terms": {
"field": "_size", <2>
"size": 10
}
}
},
"sort": [
{
"_size": { <3>
"order": "desc"
}
}
],
"script_fields": {
"size": {
"script": "doc['_size']" <4>
}
},
"docvalue_fields": [
{
"field": "_size" <5>
}
]
}
--------------------------
// TEST[continued]
<1> Querying on the `_size` field
<2> Aggregating on the `_size` field
<3> Sorting on the `_size` field
<4> Uses a
{ref}/search-request-body.html#request-body-search-script-fields[script field]
to return the `_size` field in the search response.
<5> Uses a
{ref}/search-request-body.html#request-body-search-docvalue-fields[doc value
field] to return the `_size` field in the search response. Doc value fields are
useful if
{ref}/modules-scripting-security.html#allowed-script-types-setting[inline
scripts are disabled].
