Hi there ,  
I think i might be able to help you this replay...  
suppose you have a lot of data of any thing like ecommerce sites ,or any log data on es.  
if you want to get range data than you can use filter

```auto
GET index_name/_search
{
  "query": { 
    "bool": { 
      "filter": [ 
        { "range": { "date": { "gte": "2022-07-15" }}}
      ]
    }
  }
}

```
