That's the bit you build but if you choose to use elastic's app-search [that is done for you](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/curations-guide.html)

It is not an elasticsearch API. It is an elastic product built on top of elasticsearch and available now.
It has [an API for registering products](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/curations-guide.html#curations-guide-curations-api) against keywords if you don't want to use the admin GUI.

You’re using the elasticsearch api not the app-search api.

As Mark explained, building a good search experience on top of Elasticsearch required a good amount of development. Some features may require multiple calls to Elasticsearch behind the scenes so it is not just about crafting queries.
A lot of this work has been done in the app search product, which provides an abstraction on top of Elasticsearch and higher level APIs. Based on your questions so far I think you would be better off building on top of app search as it would allow you to reach your goal faster.
That is all I have to say about this. Good luck!

According to your below suggestion:
"Here is a link to the docs, which cover installation as well as the APIs:
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/index.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/index.html)"
Is curations features will work with 7.8?

Yes, it is covered in the docs for 7.8.
Go through the installation guide to get it set up and then have a look at the getting started guide before diving into the APIs.

I have some questions
Is the curation feature not available in 7.4?
Is the curation dashboard will show in the 7.8?
