It’s still hard to understand the specifics, without an example. Could you share a sample search query, and the response you get from Typesense, and elaborate based on that?

I am fetching the data from typesense, and grouping by a field. But in the hightlight > document, the data is nested. Is there any way to flatten the data when I use group by?

> the data is nested
I’m not sure I understand this part.

The structure of the highlight object in the response just follows your document’s original structure

const variantItems = itemsArray.flatMap(({ variants, itemName, id }) =>
        variants?.flatMap(
          ({
            locations,
            name: variant,
            salesPrice,
            purchasePrice,
            discountedPrice,
            discountedPricePercentage,
          }) =>
            locations.flatMap(location => ({
              id,
              itemName,
              locationName: location.location.name,
              stock: location.currentQuantity,
              variant,
              salesPrice,
              purchasePrice,
              discountedPrice,
              discountedPricePercentage,
              status: 'In-stock',
            }))
        )
      )

this is how i am getting the values to group by from the frontend can i get it with less complexity
