== Get Mapping

The get mapping API allows to retrieve mapping definition of index or
index/type.

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------

=== Multiple Indices and Types

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}/{type}/_mapping` where both
`{index}` and `{type}` can stand for comma-separated list of names. To
get mappings for all indices you can use `_all` for `{index}`. The
following are some examples:

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/twitter,kimchy/_mapping'

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_all/tweet,book/_mapping'
--------------------------------------------------

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

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_all/_mapping'

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_mapping'
--------------------------------------------------
