Hi,
I'm a newbie in the elasticsearch and trying to make simple test,
create an index and the search for it, but i get 0 hits, here the
sample:
```
Node node = nodeBuilder().client(true).node();
Client client = node.client();
IndexResponse indexRes = client.prepareIndex("test", "contacts",
```
"1")
.setSource(jsonBuilder()
.startObject()
.field("Name", "Test\_Name")
.field("BirthDate", new Date())
.field("Email", "test@test.com")
.endObject()).execute().actionGet();
```
SearchRequestBuilder searchRequestBuilder =
```
client.prepareSearch("test");
searchRequestBuilder.setTypes("contacts");
searchRequestBuilder.setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH);
searchRequestBuilder.setQuery(termQuery("Name", "Test\_Name"));
searchRequestBuilder.setFrom(0).setSize(60).setExplain(true);
SearchResponse response =
searchRequestBuilder.execute().actionGet();
```
node.close();
```
Please , tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Thank You and Best Regards.
Slava.

Test\_Name has been tokenized to Test and Name.
So, searching Test\_Name can not work.
You should search test or name to find something.
Hope this helps,
David

Changed to "Test" - same result - 0 hits:
Node node = nodeBuilder().client(true).node();
Client client = node.client();
IndexResponse indexRes = client.prepareIndex("test", "contacts",
"1")
.setSource(jsonBuilder()
.startObject()
.field("Name", "Test")
.field("BirthDate", new Date())
.field("Email", "[test@test.com](mailto:test@test.com)")
.endObject()
)
.execute()
.actionGet();
```
SearchRequestBuilder searchRequestBuilder =
```
client.prepareSearch("test");
[//searchRequestBuilder.setTypes](https://searchRequestBuilder.setTypes)("contacts");
searchRequestBuilder.setSearchType(SearchType.DFS\_QUERY\_THEN\_FETCH);
searchRequestBuilder.setQuery(termQuery("Name", "Test"));
searchRequestBuilder.setFrom(0).setSize(60).setExplain(false);
SearchResponse response =
searchRequestBuilder.execute().actionGet();
```
node.close();
```
Thank You and Best Regards.

What about test in lowercase ?

Cool 🙂 10x it's works,
But is it means that all data should be lower case ? What are the
rules for that ?
Is there any document explains all such restrictions ?
Thank You and Best Regards.

Term request is case sensitive. querystring query should work.
Here is a good starting URL : [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/)

Or, better yet in 0.16.1, text queries (though it has a bug in it for the Java API that will be fixed in 0.16.2).

Thank You, I'll look on it,
Btw, is there any sample for text queries in Java API ?
Thank You.

replace QueryBuilders#term with QueryBuilders#text, pretty basic stuff.

Great :), there are some samples here: [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/java-api/query-dsl.html). And basically, all the queries that you can use exists in the QueryBuilders static factory, and all the filters are in FilterBuilders.
