Term level queries
editTerm level queriesedit
While the full text queries will analyze the query
string before executing, the term-level queries operate on the exact terms
that are stored in the inverted index, and will normalize terms before executing
only for keyword
fields with normalizer
property.
These queries are usually used for structured data like numbers, dates, and enums, rather than full text fields. Alternatively, they allow you to craft low-level queries, foregoing the analysis process.
The queries in this group are:
-
term
query - Find documents which contain the exact term specified in the field specified.
-
terms
query - Find documents which contain any of the exact terms specified in the field specified.
-
terms_set

-
range
query - Find documents where the field specified contains values (dates, numbers, or strings) in the range specified.
-
exists
query - Find documents where the field specified contains any non-null value.
-

-

regexp
