Hello, everybody,  
I just happened to come across the APP search and installed it. At first sight it looks very good!  
Just one question, currently I have extended my Elasticsearch-queries with a rank\_feature query...  
Is it possible to include the rank\_feature in the APP-search to calculate the relevance?

Hi @bastimm, I don't believe we have anything that would compare 1 to 1 with rank\_feature. Relevance tuning in App Search is done by applying weights and boosts either at query time or via a dashboard. More info can be found here: [https://swiftype.com/documentation/app-search/guides/relevance-tuning](https://swiftype.com/documentation/app-search/guides/relevance-tuning).
