Match query vs query string

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi ,

I am testing the below two queries but it gives different results

Query 1:
......./university/_search?q=name:Massachusetts%20Insti&fields=name

Query 2:
{"size": 10,
"fields": [
"name"
],
"query": {
"match": {
"name": {
"query": "Massachusetts Insti"
}
}
}

I believe space between the words is causing problem , how to represent the
query string in Query 2 in* Query 1 *i tries "+: "%20" for representing
spaces.

Regards
Avinash

Hi,

You have to supply the name of the field for both words.

name:Massachusetts name:Insti , Otherwise it will search for Insti in your
defaul search field.

....../university/_search?q=name:Massachusetts%20name:Insti&fields=name

The match query does this for you.
