Hi Samatha, I don’t think so because script field is created from fields of hit document, results of query/filter. You can use script filter instead [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-script-filter.html#query-dsl-script-filter).
