Hi there. I am trying range filter based on a long attribute but it seems not to be working.

This is the que query I am using:

```
GET my_index/_search
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must_not": [
        {
          "exists": {
            "field": "statistics.stats_last_purchase_minus_six_months"
          }
        },
        {
          "range": {
            "user_account_profile.user_account_id": {
              "gte": 0,
              "lt": 10000
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

```

This is the mapping of this attribute:

```
"user_account_id": {
    "type": "long"
}

```

An this is part of a document that is being returned:

```
...
"user_account_id" : 5489108
...

```

By the way, I see that many documents returns this attribute as string even with the right mapping (as shown above).

Example:

```
...
"user_account_id" : "5258648"
...

```

Can I get some help?

can you provide a fully reproducible example, including **documents and index creation** as well and the elasticsearch version you are using, please?

Also, you put that range clause in a `must_not` query, so all documents that do not match that condition will be included.
