Hi experts,

I'm trying to undestand something with a query result but I still don't get it...

I have a index (td\_movies) with a lot of movies. I want to search for the movies where the title contains "star" or "wars".

In http, I make the following query :

> [http://192.168.15.129:9200/td\_movies/\_search?q=fields.title:Star+Wars](http://192.168.15.129:9200/td_movies/_search?q=fields.title:Star+Wars)

It gives me 32 hits.

But if I try with Kibana and the following query :

> GET /td\_movies/\_search  
> {  
> "query": {  
> "match": {  
> "fields.title": "Star Wars"  
> }  
> }  
> }

I get "only" 29 hits. Why is there any difference in the result? The queries seems alike for me

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Vincent.

The curl query is most likely translated to a query string query and not a match query.  
I think the match query you wrote should be equivalent to:

```
http://192.168.15.129:9200/td_movies/_search?q=fields.title:(Star%20Wars)
```

Thanks @dadoonet! You're right!
