Hello, I have a "PRODUCT\_SUPPLIER" index in which I have a documents of products with its suppliers, having fields name "product\_name" and "product\_supplier".

```auto
"mappings" : {
      "properties" : {
        "product_name" : {
          "type" : "text",
          "fields" : {
            "keyword" : {
              "type" : "keyword"
            }
          }
        },
        "product_supplier" : {
          "type" : "text",
          "fields" : {
            "keyword" : {
              "type" : "keyword"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }

```

A product can have more than one supplier. I have a supplier name say "supplier1". I get the buckets of products this supplier supply. Now from that buckets i want to do query to get others supplier names of specific products in buckets except that supplier "supplier1". My query is this

```auto
GET /products_supplier/_search
{
  "query": {
    "term": {
      "product_supplier": {
        "value": "supplier1"
      }
    }
  }, "aggs": {
    "products_list": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "product_name.keyword",
        "size": 10
      }, "aggs": {
        "others_supplier": {
          "terms": {
            "field": "product_supplier.keyword",
            "size": 10
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

```

I get following results. I don't know how to eliminate the "Supplier1" in the "others\_supplier" aggragation.

```auto

  "took" : 2,
  "timed_out" : false,
