Filter For Field = Null

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

What's the expected behavior of the MissingFilter when applied to a
(non-analyzed) field is present but with a null value? I am finding
that documents with null values are returned (missing filter not
applied). I tried instead to use the TermFilter with a null value,
but ES choked on that.

How can I filter for a certain non analyzed field = null? I had
solved this before with a wildcard query, but it's much better for me
to use a filter if I can. Thanks.

Can you gist a curl recreation where the missing filter is not working?

My mistake. The data was not what I thought it was. However, in the
same query I am having trouble with the prefix filter. I will open a
new topic with that question and create a gist for it.
