Hi Shanon

  That mapping helps only if the search term is found in multiple
elements, it will return all those elements, we can also control the
element to be preferred.

But in my case, if the search term is only found in title and no where
else, search API only returns the title element as snippet which
doesn't have enough text to be displayed on search results page.

Thanks
