Span Term Query

Matches spans containing a term. The span term query maps to Lucene SpanTermQuery. Here is an example:

GET /_search
{
    "query": {
        "span_term" : { "user" : "kimchy" }
    }
}

A boost can also be associated with the query:

GET /_search
{
    "query": {
       "span_term" : { "user" : { "value" : "kimchy", "boost" : 2.0 } }
    }
}

Or :

GET /_search
{
    "query": {
        "span_term" : { "user" : { "term" : "kimchy", "boost" : 2.0 } }
    }
}
