Hello All, I am able to perform single keyword search, but unable to achieve the multiple keyword search: Single Keyword Search(works fine): curl -XGET '[http://localhost/index/type/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost/index/type/_search?pretty=true)' -d '{"query" : {"text":{"\_all":"Shannu"}}}' or curl -XGET '[http://localhost/index/type/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost/index/type/_search?pretty=true)' -d '{"query" : {"match":{"\_all":"Shannu"}}}' the above query bring back the correct results Mutiple Keyword/text Search: curl -XGET '[http://localhost/index/type/\_search?pretty=true](http://localhost/index/type/_search?pretty=true)' -d '{"query" : {"match":{"\_all":["Shannu"," Text2","Something"]}}}' - this query executes with out error but not with the expected results Result: { "took" : 6, "timed\_out" : false, "\_shards" : { "total" : 5, "successful" : 5, "failed" : 0 }, "hits" : { "total" : 0, "max\_score" : null, "hits" : [] } } but I am expecting the items or docs which has those keywords I mentioned..Am I missing something here in the query ? or is there other way for multiple text search ??? Many thnx in Advance 🙂 Regards, Shannu. -- ---

Why not a match with "Shannu Text2 Something" on \_all ? -- David 😉 Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs Le 9 oct. 2012 à 12:56, shannu [shanmukhaveeranki@gmail.com](mailto:shanmukhaveeranki@gmail.com) a écrit : > Shannu"," > Text2","Something" -- ---

Thanks a lot David, worked the way I wanted. I assume that the query operator is OR here: '{"query" : {"match":{"\_all":"Text1 Text2"}}}' - this query brings up all the results with documents which has Text1 Or Text2 in them. If in case I had to perform Text1 AND Text2 search, what will be the query ? Many thanks again. Cheers, Shannu.

You can modify your search "+Text1 +Text2" or, best, modify the way match query works: [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/match-query.html) [http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/match-query.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/match-query.html) { "match" : { "message" : { "query" : "this is a test", "operator" : "and" } } } Le 9 octobre 2012 à 13:38, shannu [shanmukhaveeranki@gmail.com](mailto:shanmukhaveeranki@gmail.com) a écrit : > Thanks a lot David, worked the way I wanted. > > I assume that the query operator is OR here: > '{"query" : {"match":{"\_all":"Text1 Text2"}}}' - this query brings up all the > results with documents which has Text1 Or Text2 in them. > > If in case I had to perform Text1 AND Text2 search, what will be the query ? > > Many thanks again. > > Cheers, > Shannu. > > On Tuesday, October 9, 2012 12:14:13 PM UTC+1, David Pilato wrote: > > > > Why not a match with "Shannu Text2 Something" on \_all ? > > > > -- > > David 😉 > > Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs > > > > Le 9 oct. 2012 à 12:56, shannu \< [shanmukh...@gmail.com](mailto:shanmukh...@gmail.com)\> a écrit : > > > > > Shannu"," > > > Text2","Something" > > -- -- David Pilato [http://www.scrutmydocs.org/](http://www.scrutmydocs.org/) [http://dev.david.pilato.fr/](http://dev.david.pilato.fr/) Twitter : @dadoonet / @elasticsearchfr / @scrutmydocs -- ---
