Hi,
I am new to ElasticSearch. I want to apply some boost factor on the filter
that I have. Is it possible to apply score/boost factor on filters. if yes,
can some one show me how to do that in java?
Thanks!

The function\_score query will allow you to define multiple filters, each of
which you can apply a boost\_factor or any custom score you want:
