You can, just set the number of columns returned to zero (count parameter in the slice range).
The indexed slices thrift call is get_indexed_slices(ColumnParent column_parent, IndexClause index_clause, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level) the count parameter is in the SliceRange within the SlicePredicate (If you are using the thrift interface directly). 2011/11/11 Maxim Potekhin <potek...@bnl.gov>: > > Is there a way to get only keys with get_indexed_slices? > Looking at the code, it's not possible, but -- is there some way anyhow? > I don't want to extract any data, just a list of matching keys. > > TIA, > > Maxim > > -- Filipe Gonçalves
