Failed to parse query with escaped quotation mark

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

I pass the following query with escaped quotation mark:
{
"from": 0,
"size": 100,
"query": {
"query_string": {
"query":
""http://www.ynet.co.il/tags/jQuery16103187891168054193_1379319901404*"*
?"",
"fields": [
"string.VersionId"
]
}
},
"fields": [
"Id",
"string.LocalPath",
"string.VersionId",
"dateTime.CollectionTime"
]
}

and I get the error as if the quotation mark is not escaped:
Caused by: org.elasticsearch.index.query.QueryParsingException:

Is that a known bug?

Thanks.

Hey,

the query_string query might not be the best solution for queries like
this, as it is using the lucene query parser (which can easily fail). You
should check out the query DSL a bit further and maybe go with a match
query or a term query - this largely depends how you want to query and what
you are expected and what kind of data you have indexed. Maybe you can
elaborate on that.

Your quotation marks are unbalanced. You have one escaped quotation mark on
the left and two escaped on the right.
