How to convert a SOLR mutivalued field into equivalent elastic search field

I'm working towards converting a solr schema file into elastic search equivalent.

I do not know how to convert a field that is multivalued in SOLR to elastic search equivalent

for example :

<field name="projectid" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" />

i looked at elasticsearch multi-field option but it looks more like a copyfield option.

Is all the fields in elasticsearch inherently multivalued.

please can you help on this

The Elasticsearch equivalent is an array type. You just need to create an array in your JSON document and Elasticsearch will automatically detect it is an array. A simple example would be:

{
   "name":"arrayExample",
   "tags":["one", "two", "three" ]
}

If you were to do a search on the tags field with the search term one the above document would be returned.
