# `IndicesAnalyzeRequest` [interface-IndicesAnalyzeRequest]

| Name | Type | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `analyzer` | string | The name of the analyzer that should be applied to the provided `text`. This could be a built-in analyzer, or an analyzer that’s been configured in the index. |
| `attributes` | string[] | Array of token attributes used to filter the output of the `explain` parameter. |
| `body` | string | ({ [key: string]: any; } & { index?: never; analyzer?: never; attributes?: never; char_filter?: never; explain?: never; field?: never; filter?: never; normalizer?: never; text?: never; tokenizer?: never; }) | All values in `body` will be added to the request body. |
| `char_filter` | [AnalysisCharFilter](./AnalysisCharFilter.md)[] | Array of character filters used to preprocess characters before the tokenizer. |
| `explain` | boolean | If `true`, the response includes token attributes and additional details. |
| `field` | [Field](./Field.md) | Field used to derive the analyzer. To use this parameter, you must specify an index. If specified, the `analyzer` parameter overrides this value. |
| `filter` | [AnalysisTokenFilter](./AnalysisTokenFilter.md)[] | Array of token filters used to apply after the tokenizer. |
| `index` | [IndexName](./IndexName.md) | Index used to derive the analyzer. If specified, the `analyzer` or field parameter overrides this value. If no index is specified or the index does not have a default analyzer, the analyze API uses the standard analyzer. |
| `normalizer` | string | Normalizer to use to convert text into a single token. |
| `querystring` | { [key: string]: any; } & { index?: never; analyzer?: never; attributes?: never; char_filter?: never; explain?: never; field?: never; filter?: never; normalizer?: never; text?: never; tokenizer?: never; } | All values in `querystring` will be added to the request querystring. |
| `text` | [IndicesAnalyzeTextToAnalyze](./IndicesAnalyzeTextToAnalyze.md) | Text to analyze. If an array of strings is provided, it is analyzed as a multi-value field. |
| `tokenizer` | [AnalysisTokenizer](./AnalysisTokenizer.md) | Tokenizer to use to convert text into tokens. |
