I have an Elasticsearch query which emails out on an specific Windows Event Log event id.  
This is a basic query...  
{  
"query":{  
"query\_string" : {  
"query" : "10028",  
"fields": ["event.code"]

```
    }
}

```

}

What I would like to do is

1. Group alerts on host.name. So a separate alert for each host meeting this criteria.
2. Include the hostname in the emails.

Is an Elasticsearch query the best way to configure this?  
Any ideas?
