Global search, different filters per index in one query

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi,

Due to accessibility levels in my organization, when performing a global
search across all indices within Elasticsearch, I need to apply different
filters for different indices and then combine this into one results pool.
I am wondering whether that is possible in one huge query, so that I don't
perform separate queries per index?

To clarify -- let's say I have a Post and Comment models. When fetching
results, I should only match Comments by commenter_id whereas Post by
poster_id. I have separate indices for posts and comments. Now, I'd just
perform two queries, filtering separately and then combine results. But
that's slow. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
Antek

Hi,

Thanks! I actually looked at the indices query but it only gives me one
alternative. If I have more models, is multi_search my only option ?

You can combine several indices queries together using bool query
