Hi @orhantoy,

Thanks for quick reply.

Document level security restricts the documents that users have read access

In elasticsearch, it is feasible.  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/current/document-level-security.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/current/document-level-security.html)

Can we achieve same in app search?
