+### Mapping Field Names
+
+By default, API Platform does not convert Elasticsearch document field names: a `_source` field is
+mapped to the object property of the same name (unless [`#[SerializedName]`](serialization.md) is
+used). Use camelCase field names in your mappings, as described above.
+
+If your documents use snake_case field names, configure a name converter so that they are mapped to
+camelCase properties. There are two options.
+
+To convert names for every format, set the global `name_converter` in the API Platform
+configuration. This also changes the serialization of all other formats:
+
+```yaml
+# api/config/packages/api_platform.yaml
+api_platform:
+    name_converter: "serializer.name_converter.camel_case_to_snake_case"
+```
+
+To convert names for Elasticsearch only, override the
+`api_platform.elasticsearch.name_converter.inner_fields` service and pass it the converter:
+
+```yaml
+# api/config/services.yaml
+services:
+    api_platform.elasticsearch.name_converter.inner_fields:
+        class: ApiPlatform\Elasticsearch\Serializer\NameConverter\InnerFieldsNameConverter
+        arguments:
+            - "@serializer.name_converter.camel_case_to_snake_case"
+```
+
+> [!WARNING] The same name converter builds the field names used by the Elasticsearch filters and by
+> sorting. Once a converter is set, a filter or sort on the `firstName` property targets the
+> `first_name` field of the index.
