# cat fielddata
|
|
|
|
The cat fielddata operation lists the memory size used by each field per node.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET _cat/fielddata?v
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To limit the information to a specific field, add the field name after your query:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET _cat/fielddata/<field_name>?v
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to get information for more than one field, separate the field names with commas:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
GET _cat/aliases/field_name_1,field_name_2,field_name_3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Path and HTTP methods
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
GET _cat/fielddata?v
|
|
GET _cat/fielddata/<field_name>?v
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
