Hi,

Let say my SQL query will be as follow:  
SELECT A,B,C,D FROM TABLE1 WHERE A in ('a','b','c') AND B \> 20

How can I write the elasticsearch query so that it works the same manner as the query above?

Welcome!

You can try [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/sql-translate.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/sql-translate.html) to translate the original query to SQL.

Otherwise, you need probably here a `bool` query with 2 `must` clauses.  
One clause would be a `terms` query and the second clause a `range` query.

Create a bool query with filter range and must should inside. Then use \_source to select only which columns to return.
