=== Nested query
++++
<titleabbrev>Nested</titleabbrev>
++++
Wraps another query to search <<nested,nested>> fields.
The `nested` query searches nested field objects as if they were indexed as
separate documents. If an object matches the search, the `nested` query returns
the root parent document.
[[nested-query-ex-request]]
==== Example request
[[nested-query-index-setup]]
===== Index setup
To use the `nested` query, your index must include a <<nested,nested>> field
mapping. For example:
[source,js]
----
PUT /my_index
{
"mappings": {
"properties" : {
"obj1" : {
"type" : "nested"
}
}
}
}
----
// CONSOLE
// TESTSETUP
[[nested-query-ex-query]]
===== Example query
[source,js]
----
GET /my_index/_search
{
"query": {
"nested" : {
"path" : "obj1",
"query" : {
"bool" : {
"must" : [
{ "match" : {"obj1.name" : "blue"} },
{ "range" : {"obj1.count" : {"gt" : 5}} }
]
}
},
"score_mode" : "avg"
}
}
}

[[nested-top-level-params]]
==== Top-level parameters for `nested`
`path`::
(Required, string) Path to the nested object you wish to search.
`query`::
+
--
(Required, query object) Query you wish to run on nested objects in the `path`.
If an object matches the search, the `nested` query returns the root parent
document.
You can search nested fields using dot notation that includes the complete path,
such as `obj1.name`.
Multi-level nesting is automatically supported, and detected, resulting in an
inner nested query to automatically match the relevant nesting level, rather
than root, if it exists within another nested query.
--
`score_mode`::
+
--
(Optional, string) Indicates how scores for matching child objects affect the
root parent document's <<query-filter-context,relevance score>>. Valid values
are:
`avg` (Default)::
Use the mean relevance score of all matching child objects.
`max`::
Uses the highest relevance score of all matching child objects.
`min`::
Uses the lowest relevance score of all matching child objects.
`none`::
Do not use the relevance scores of matching child objects. The query assigns
parent documents a score of `0`.
`sum`::
Add together the relevance scores of all matching child objects.
--
`ignore_unmapped`::
+
--
(Optional, boolean) Indicates whether to ignore an unmapped `path` and not
return any documents instead of an error. Defaults to `false`.
If `false`, {es} returns an error if the `path` is an unmapped field.
You can use this parameter to query multiple indices that may not contain the
field `path`.
