Get tokens from text analysis
The analyze API performs analysis on a text string and returns the resulting tokens.
Path parameters
-
Index used to derive the analyzer. If specified, the
analyzeror field parameter overrides this value. If no index is specified or the index does not have a default analyzer, the analyze API uses the standard analyzer.
Body
-
analyzer string
The name of the analyzer that should be applied to the provided
text. This could be a built-in analyzer, or an analyzer that’s been configured in the index. -
attributes array[string]
Array of token attributes used to filter the output of the
explainparameter. -
char_filter array
Array of character filters used to preprocess characters before the tokenizer.
-
explain boolean
If
true, the response includes token attributes and additional details. -
field string
Path to field or array of paths. Some API's support wildcards in the path to select multiple fields.
-
filter array
Array of token filters used to apply after the tokenizer.
-
normalizer string
Normalizer to use to convert text into a single token.
