Hey @Sam123, there's no way to limit the total results of a query. The best you could do is limit the `resultsPerPage` option to make the result set appear smaller to a user: [https://github.com/elastic/search-ui/blob/master/ADVANCED.md](https://github.com/elastic/search-ui/blob/master/ADVANCED.md).
