Hi I want to ask, how to access App Search using Dev tool? Can it be translated into query DSL?

I want to test the relevance tuning results from the Dev Tool before apply it to our application

Hi, unfortunately the App Search API is not available in Dev tools, because the Enterprise Search server is a different server than the Elasticsearch server.

You can test App search in a few different ways though:

- You can exercise the [App Search API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/api-reference.html) via a tool like cURL or Postman
- You can get the Elasticsearch query via the [Explain API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/search-explain.html) and you could run _that_ in Dev tools.
