[[index-options]]
=== `index_options`
The `index_options` parameter controls what information is added to the
inverted index, for search and highlighting purposes. It accepts the
following settings:
[horizontal]
`docs`::
Only the doc number is indexed. Can answer the question _Does this term
exist in this field?_
`freqs`::
Doc number and term frequencies are indexed. Term frequencies are used to
score repeated terms higher than single terms.
`positions`::
Doc number, term frequencies, and term positions (or order) are indexed.
Positions can be used for
<<query-dsl-match-query-phrase,proximity or phrase queries>>.
`offsets`::
Doc number, term frequencies, positions, and start and end character
offsets (which map the term back to the original string) are indexed.
Offsets are used by the <<unified-highlighter,unified highlighter>> to speed up highlighting.
NOTE: <<number,Numeric fields>> don't support the `index_options` parameter any longer.
<<mapping-index,Analyzed>> string fields use `positions` as the default, and
all other fields use `docs` as the default.
