# Hi, I have the following structure in the elasticSearch -- When i perform search by dbEntityName i get results , however when i perform search by legacyEntityAttributeName i do not get results , please note that kibana give me details , however my elasticSearch js client does not give me results

# sample code : $scope.search = function() { alert($scope.queryTerm); client.search({ index: 'legacytables', type: 'existingtables', body: { "query" : { "match" : {legacyEntityAttributeName: $scope.queryTerm} // if i give entityAttributes.legacyEntityAttributeName angular throws error } } }).then(function (resp) { alert(resp.hits.total); $scope.results = resp.hits.hits[0].\_source; }, function (err) { console.trace(err.message); }
