HI,

I have created a scripted field `sc1` in kibana like;

```
doc['error.keyword'].value == 'error1' ? 0 : 1

```

this makes `sc1` 0 if the content is `error1` and 0 if content is not `error1`. What I want is, I want `sc1` to be 0, if the content is either `error1` or `error2`. How can I do this?

Thanks in advance..

@elasticcloud Painless supports the `||` (OR) operator you can use to do the following:

```auto
doc['error.keyword'].value == 'error1' || doc['error.keyword'].value == 'error2' ? 0 : 1

```

Or you can use the `contains` method to do the following:

```auto
['error1', 'error2'].contains(doc['error.keyword'].value) ? 0 : 1

```
