Hi,
In the filters doc is mentionned:
Within each array, its items are applied using an " **OR**" condition.
How can i do to have the " **AND**" condition?
For ex if if want all document with Washington **AND** Idaho?
```auto
"filters": {
"states": ["Washington", "Idaho"]
}
```
Tnx

Hello,
You can break them out into two separate clauses, one for each state, in a list under an `all`. More info here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/filters.html#filters-combining-filters](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/filters.html#filters-combining-filters)
