Boolean field script doesn't work

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
#1

Hi,
I have this mapping:

products: {
product: {
boosts: {
properties: {
isAvailable: { type: "boolean" }
}
}
}

And while doing this query:
{
"from": 0,
"size": 20,
"query": {
"custom_score": {
"script": "_score *
(doc['boosts.isAvailable'].value ? 1 : downBoostFactor)",
"params": {
"downBoostFactor": 0.001
},
"query": {
"match_all": {

                            } 
                    } 
            } 
    }

}

I get error saying: nested: ScriptRuntimeException[expected Boolean; but
found: java.lang.String];

Am I doing something wrong? Can boolean fileds be queried in script?

Thanks

Hello,

I can also reproduce this on 0.20.0.RC1. The issue seems to have been
reported for a while now:

But I'm not sure what's the status on it. I suppose the workaround for
now would be to index that field as a numeric value.

Best regards,
Radu
