How to get the Match Type in Elasticsearhc response?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi Team,

In Elasticsearch we have types of matches like "Fuzzy", "Exact" etc.....
is there any way that will get to know which type of match has happened for request query, in the elasticsearch response?

Thanks in advance

You can named your queries. Like this: https://gist.github.com/dadoonet/5179ee72ecbf08f12f53d4bda1b76bab#file-search_kibana_console-txt-L362-L457

GET user/_search
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "should": [
        {
          "match_phrase": {
            "name": {
              "query" : "david pilato",
              "_name": "phrase on name",
              "boost": 8.0
            }
          }
        },
        {
          "match": {
            "name": {
              "query": "david pilato",
              "operator": "and", 
              "_name": "all terms on name",
              "boost": 2.0
            }
          }
        },

Could you please explain it briefly? requirement is when i fire a request to elasticsearch, if a word is matched, i wanted the match type in elasticsearch response...

Did you try the example I linked to?

5

yes i tried.. But the scenario you have explained above, hints about which incoming request is matched not about the which match has happened with document in the elasticsearch.

Could you provide a full recreation script as described in About the Elasticsearch category. It will help to better understand what you are doing. Please, try to keep the example as simple as possible.

A full reproduction script will help readers to understand, reproduce and if needed fix your problem. It will also most likely help to get a faster answer.
