You can send a JSON string, byte array or object using the low level client. If you use the low level client exposed on the high level client through the `.LowLevel` property, you can also take advantage of having a strongly typed `SearchResponse<TDocument>` response. for example, with a JSON string

```auto
var client = new ElasticClient();

var query = @"{
  ""suggest"": {
    ""my-completion-suggest"": {
      ""completion"": {
        ""analyzer"": ""simple"",
        ""contexts"": {
          ""color"": [
            {
              ""context"": ""red""
            }
          ]
        },
        ""field"": ""suggest"",
        ""fuzzy"": {
          ""fuzziness"": ""AUTO"",
          ""min_length"": 1,
          ""prefix_length"": 2,
          ""transpositions"": true,
          ""unicode_aware"": false
        },
        ""size"": 8
      },
      ""prefix"": ""Durgan LLC""
    }
  }
}";

var response = 
    client.LowLevel.Search<SearchResponse<YourDocument>>("index", "type", query);

```

Take a look at [Suggester usage for examples with the high level client](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/net-api/current/suggest-usage.html)
