Thanks for your valuable response.

please tell me how can we use this api?

If i have 100000 records in elastic search  
each record have name, email, website address fields

i want to search "home" so it will search first in name it find 10 records then search in email find 100 records then search in website find 5 record now at the end it return all result step by step.

The doc is here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.3/search-multi-search.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.3/search-multi-search.html)

If you need more help, provide a script with what you tried so far so anyone can help from there.
