Exists query also works with only doc_values (elastic#103647)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
With this commit we amend the docs for the `exists` query to clarify
that it works with either `index` *or* `doc_values` set to `true` in the
mapping. Only if both are disabled, the `exists` query won't work.

An indexed value may not exist for a document's field due to a variety of reasons:

* The field in the source JSON is `null` or `[]`
* The field has `"index" : false` set in the mapping
* The field has `"index" : false` and `"doc_values" : false` set in the mapping
* The length of the field value exceeded an `ignore_above` setting in the mapping
* The field value was malformed and `ignore_malformed` was defined in the mapping
