I m trying to find user by nationality using query\_string but it query return other nationality records. Can anyone help me out how query\_string is working.

curl -X GET 'http:/127.0.0.1:9200/user\_alias/\_search?size=1000&pretty' -d '{"query":{"filtered":{"query":{"query\_string":{"query":"nationality:""AF"""}}}},"filter":{"and":[{"terms":{"room\_id":["591"]}},{"bool":{"must":[{"exists":{"field":"nationality"}}]}},{"bool":{"must":[{"exists":{"field":"user.id"}}]}}]},"size":1000,"fields":["user.id", "nationality"]}'

For example  
Data returns :

1. id : 1  
nationality : FA
2. id : 2  
nationality : CA

It looks like this may be related to Elasticsearch, not App Search. In that case, you are better off posting under the Elasticsearch topic: [https://discuss.elastic.co/c/elasticsearch](https://discuss.elastic.co/c/elasticsearch).
