Register and call query in ElasticSearch

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Is it possible to register query (like the percolate process) and call them
by name to execute them.
I am building an application that will let the user save search query
associated with a label. I would like to save the query generated by the
filter in ES.

If I save the query in an index, I have to call ES first to retrieve the
query, extract the field containing the query and then call ES again to
execute it. Can I do it in one call ?

The other solution is to register queries (labels with _percolator with an
identifier of the user:
/_percolate/transaction/user1_label1

{
"userId": "user1",
"query":{
"term":{"field1":"foo" }
}
}

and when there is a new document use the percolator in a non indexing mode
(filtered per userId) to retrieve which query match, and then update the
document by adding a field "label":["user1_label1", "user1_label2"] and
finaly index the document. SO the labelling is done at indexing time.

What do you think ?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Jecom,

If you don't need scoring, you can used filtered aliases:

But I think the logic would always be pretty similar: queries should
be retrieved from somewhere, then ran.

Best regards,
