you need to make a selection only by file type, the object was saved simply as Object.class  
try to choose by,

```auto
searchResponse = osClient.search(new SearchRequest(eventIndex)
                             .scroll(scroll)
                     .source(
                     newSearchSourceBuilder().query(
                             QueryBuilders.matchPhraseQuery("metaInfo.object.type",searchQuery.getObject())
                     )
             ), RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

```

we output is always 0
