Is it possible to use index boost when using completion suggester in Elasticsearch? I have tried many different ways but doesn't seem to work. Haven't found any reference in the documentation claiming that it does not work for completion suggester. Example:
POST index1,index2/_search
{
"suggest" : {
"name_suggest" : {
"text" : "my_query",
"completion" : {
"field" : "name_suggest",
"size" : 7,
"fuzzy" :{}
}
}
},
"indices_boost" : [
{ "index1" : 2 },
{ "index2" : 1.5 }
]
}
The above does not return boosted scores. The scores are the same compared to running it without the indices_boost parameter.
(I posted this on Stack Overflow earlier here but didn't get much views - got one answer with a workaround - but wanted to repost it here to know from the community if this is really not a feature by design)
