Hi, Im trying to query elasticsearch to do the following :

**Data going into Elastic**

```
Order Number	Product Name
order1 Chicken    
order2 Banana
order3 Chicken   
order1 Cucumber   
order2 Chicken
order3 Apples
order1 Flour
order2 Rice
order3 Nuts

```

This is the Query im using to get a Product Name

```
{
    "query" : {
        "match" : {
        "ProductName" : "Chicken"
}

```

Result : All orders that contain Chicken

```
    Order Number	Product Name
    order1 Chicken          
    order3 Chicken
    order2 Chicken

```

**What I would like to achieve:**  
If the above orders have Chicken in it then give me all the other Products that was also purchased with Chicken.

```
Order Number Product Name
order1 Cucumber
order2 Banana
order3 Apples
order1 Flour
order2 Rice
order3 Nuts

```

How do i go about constructing a query to do this ? please help i am very new to elasticsearch.

- Do i require to Run the first query get all orders that contain Chicken then extract the order numbers and run another query ?

You need to do two queries, and issue the second one from your client. You cannot chain queries like this natively.
