Is it possible to have a percolate query return a score for how well each percolate query matches the document and return extra fields from the percolate query as part of the results? Given the percolate query below: { "query" : { "match" : { "query" : "blue" } }, "other\_field" : "test" } and the following document: { "doc" : { "query" : "blue shoes nike" } } I'd like to see a result something like this: { "took": 1, "\_shards": { "total": 1, "successful": 1, "failed": 0 }, "total": 2, "matches": [ { "\_index": "myIndex", "\_id": "1", "\_score" : 0.87 "other\_field" : "test" } ] } Are either of these possible? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Unfortunately neither is possible at the moment. The score part that you ask is interesting in which I could see some interesting applications. For the second one, you'll probably just need to do an \_mget or second search to retrieve extra metadata from the percolator queries. There is a scoring capability in the percolator in ES 1.0 but it is not the way you describe. It simply works by you supplying a query along with the percolate call and then a score will be computed based on the relevance of the query against the percolator queries metadata. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Binh, I was afraid of that. That lines up with all the information I've seen in the documentation. I was just hoping there was something I was missing. I've already done what you've suggested for fetching the fields. I guess I could attempt to score the results myself.
