Hi @Muna,

It's a bit hard to know what went wrong without an error message but my guess is you need to use `ignore_unmapped` setting [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-nested-query.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-nested-query.html).
