Yes. You need to define a mapping. My recommandation would to disable _all field and use `copy_to` feature which is to me really more flexible.

I'm currently indexing data using XContentBuilder (do not have separate json mappings) like this: XContentBuilder builder = jsonBuilder().startObject() .field("datefield", new Date()) .field("astring", "blah") .endObject(); I would like to exclude things like dates, numeric fields, etc. Is it necessary to create json mappings to have this fine-grained of control?
