I have ten or so fields in all my documents: One in particular is product_code which is unique per document and of type string.
I have a match query on _all that works well, but I would like to perform a "fuzzy match" while preserving the ability to search for exact product_code
Here's what I've attempted:
"query": {
"bool": {
"should": [
{
"match": {
"product_code": {
"query": searchString,
"operator": "AND"
}
}
},
{
"match": {
"_all": {
"query": searchString,
"operator": "AND"
"fuzziness": 2,
"prefix_length": 2
}
}
}
]
}
}
The problem with this approach is that the fuzziness is being applied to searches for product_code as well because it's included in _all.
Is there a way to either perform the search on product_code first and if no results are found, perform the search on _all, or exclude product_code from the _all query?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
yes you can exlude product_code from _all using the following mappings.
PUT index_name
{
"settings": {
"analysis": {
"analyzer": {},
"filter": {}
}
},
"mappings": {
"type_name": {
"properties": {
"product_code": {
"type": "string",
"include_in_all": false
}
}
}
}
}
Alternatively you can use query_string search which also offer fuzziness.
Use the following query which use query string with AND operator and fuzziness settings
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"should": [{
"query_string": {
"fields": ["product_code", "other_field"],
"query": "this is my string",
"default_operator": "AND",
"fuzziness": 2,
"fuzzy_prefix_length": 2
}
}, {
"match": {
"product_code": {
"query": "this is my string",
"operator": "AND"
}
}
}]
}
}
}
Hope this helps

I have an json record in the elastic search with fields
"streetName": "5 Street",
"name": ["Shivam Apartments"]
I tried the below query but it does not return anything if I add streetName bool in the query
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"must": [
{
"bool": {
"must": {
"match": {
"name": {
"query": "shivam apartments",
"minimum_should_match": "80%"
}
}
}
}
},
{
"bool": {
"must": {
"match": {
"streetName": {
"query": "5 street",
"minimum_should_match": "80%"
}
}
}
}
}
]
}
}
}
Document Mapping
{
"rabc_documents": {
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "text",
"analyzer": "autocomplete_analyzer",
"position_increment_gap": 0
},
"streetName": {
"type": "keyword"
}
}
}
}
}
Based on the E.S Documentation (Keywords in Elastic Search)
"Keyword fields are only searchable by their exact value".
Along with that keywords are case sensitive as well.
Taking aforementioned into account:
Searching for "5 street" will not match "5 Street" ('s' vs 'S') on keyword field
minimum_should_match will not work on a keyword field.
Suggestion: For partial matches use "text" mapping instead of "keyword". Keywords are meant to be used for filtering, aggregation based on term, etc.
I use ES 7, I want to search over multi fields, but on this field (title) must be shown firstly if it matches exactly. For now I tried :
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"must": {
"bool": {
"should": [
{
"match_phrase": {
"titre": {
"query": "test",
"boost": "20"
}
}
},
{
"multi_match": {
"fields": ["titre", "description^4", "subtitle^3"],
"query": "test",
"type": "most_fields"
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
}
It works, but I would like to order the match_phrase before other results.
The idea is the user type the exact phrase of a title, this result will appear before other based on multi_match.
Is it possible ?
I searched in the documentation for a way to promote ElasticSearch results if a specific field has a certain value, but I didn't find any good practice, for example, I have a user that lives in Paris if the user search for a query I want the documents that are relevant to Paris to appear the first or just to be promoted.
There is a lot to this but you want to research "boosting". This can be done at the mapping level or the query level.
Mapping example:
{
"mappings": {
"_doc": {
"properties": {
"location": {
"type": "keyword",
"boost": 2 <--- 2x boost to the final score
}
}
}
}
}
Query Example:
GET /_search
{
"query": {
"bool": {
"must": {
"match": {
"content": {
"query": "full text search",
"operator": "and"
}
}
},
"should": [
{ "term": {
"location": {
"value": "xxx",
"boost": 3 <--- 3x boost if the location matches
}
}}
]
}
}
}
I am using the following multi_match query in Elasticsearch and I am wondering if I can use fuzziness only for "friendly_name field". I have tried different things but doesn't seem to work. I am also wondering if it possible to use an analyzer to get a similar result as the fuzziness does:
"query": {
"multi_match": {
"query": "input query",
"fields": ["code_short", "code_word","friendly_name"],
"minimum_should_match": "2"
} }, "_source": ["code", "friendly_name"]
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
If you only need query on one field , you don't need multi match
"match": {
"name": {
"query": "your query",
"fuzziness": "1.5",
"prefix_length": 0,
"max_expansions": 100,
"minimum_should_match": "80%"
}
}
I don't believe that you can fully replace fuzziness, but you have 2 options to explore that might work for you. ngram filter or stemmer filter.

Well it wasn't very clear to me what you've intended. But you can do your query that way:
"query": {
"bool": {
"should": [
{
"match": {
"friendly_name": {
"query": "text",
"fuzziness": "1.5",
"prefix_length": 0,
"max_expansions": 100
}
}
},
{
"match": {
"code_word": {
"query": "text"
}
}
},
{
"match": {
"code_short": {
"query": "text"
}
}
}
],
"minimum_should_match" : 2
}
}
I would like to mix a search on a whole document (eg "developer") and a search on some field for another term (eg "php").
I can do each search separately but I can't mix them.
Here my example (simplified to show only my issue) :
{
"query": {
"function_score": {
"query": {
"match": {
"_all": "developer"
},
"multi_match": {
"query": "php",
"fields": [
"skills.description",
"skills.description",
"skills.details"
],
"operator": "or",
"type": "most_fields"
}
}
}
}
If I run this example I have an error :
Parse Failure [Failed to parse source
Is there a way to search on both _all and specific fields with two terms?
Thanks.
Yes, you're almost there, you need to combine them into a bool/must query:
{
"query": {
"function_score": {
"query": {
"bool": {
"must": [
{
"match": {
"_all": "developer"
}
},
{
"multi_match": {
"query": "php",
"fields": [
"skills.description",
"skills.description",
"skills.details"
],
"operator": "or",
"type": "most_fields"
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
}
