External Http request to get ranking data for docs

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi Folks,

I need to make an external web request to get some signals for documents and then merge the signals to boost ranking and then return results to the client.
How can we achieve this on elastic cluster, i.e. making an external web request and then boosting original results from elastic nodes?

Thank you in advance.

I think it'd be best to do the call external to ES, get the data you need, then build the query dynamically.
