I am sending the following request:

> ```
> {
> "query": {
> "bool": {
> "must": [{
> "terms": {
> "name": ["test"]

> }, {
> "terms": {

> "highlight": {
> "pre_tags": ["<b>"],
> "post_tags": ["</b>"],
> "fields": {
> "*": {}
> 
> }
> }
> }

It is giving me the following result:

> `no [query] registered for [nested]`

Can anyone help me here?  
What is wrong in my query?

There is a space after `nested`. You need to change `"nested "` into `"nested"`.
