Elasticsearch applying filters to aggregation - elasticsearch

Question

I'm trying to build a facets system using Elasticsearch to display the number of documents which match a query.
I'm currently doing this query on /_search?search_type=count:
{
"query": {
"query_string": {
"query": "status:(1|2) AND categories:A"
}
},
"aggs": {
"all_products": {
"global": {},
"aggs": {
"countries": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "country"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
},
"categories": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "category"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
},
"statuses": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "status"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
the documents have the following structure:
{
"id": 123,
"name": "Title",
"categories": ["A", "B", "C"],
"country": "United Kingdom",
"status": 1
}
so the output I'm looking for should be:
Country
UK: 123
USA: 1000
Category
Motors: 23
Fashion: 1100
Status
Active: 1120
Not Active: 3
I don't know how to filter properly the aggregations, because right now they are counting all the document in the specified field, without considering the query status:(1|2) AND categories:A.
The elastic version is 1.7.2.

Answer 1

You simply need to remove global aggregation since it is not influenced by the query, just move your countries, categories and statuses aggregations at the top level like this:
{
"query": {
"query_string": {
"query": "status:(1|2) AND categories:A"
}
},
"aggs": {
"countries": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "country"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
},
"categories": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "category"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
},
"statuses": {
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"terms": ["min_doc_count": 0, "field": "status"],
"aggs": ["unique": ["cardinality": ["field": "id"]]]
}
}
}
}
}

Fabio. Ill see Your post on upwork, i have worked example for ES 2.4, may be it help You.
"index": "{{YOUR ELASTIC INDEX}}",
"type": "{{YOUR ELASTIC TYPE}}",
"body": {
"aggs": {
"trademarks": { // aggs NAME
"terms": {
"field": "id", // field name in ELASTIC base
"size": 100 // count of results YOU need
}
},
"materials": { //another aggs NAME
"terms": {
"field": "materials.name", // field name in ELASTIC base
"size": 100 / count of results YOU need
}
},
"certificate": {
"terms": {
"field": "certificate_type_id",
"size": 100
}
},
"country": {
"terms": {
"field": "country.id",

}
},
"price": {
