The get mapping API allows to retrieve mapping definitions for an index or index/type.

Multiple Indices and Types

edit

The get mapping API can be used to get more than one index or type mapping with a single call. General usage of the API follows the following syntax: host:port/{index}/_mapping/{type} where both {index} and {type} can accept a comma-separated list of names. To get mappings for all indices you can use _all for {index}. The following are some examples:

GET /_mapping/_doc

GET /_all/_mapping/_doc

If you want to get mappings of all indices and types then the following two examples are equivalent:

GET /_all/_mapping

GET /_mapping
