Searching in case of leading wildcard searching

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi All,

We have field col1 which contains values in below pattern.

aa:bb:cc
aa:ee:ff
aa:dd:gg

We are using QueryString query to search the record.

If we are searching for *a:bb:cc , then query is returning all the above
three records, but the expected record in only aa:bb:cc one. Even query is
returning records which contains a, aa, aaa, etc.

Below is the query we are using:

String query = "{"query" : "
+ QueryBuilders
.queryString(
"col1"
+ ":"
+ input

                                                )
                                                .analyzeWildcard(true)
                                                .defaultOperator(
                                                        Operator.AND)
                                                .toString() + "}";

Hi All,

If I am searching for aa:bb:cc, then query is returning exactly one record
(expected behaviour).
If I am searching for *a:bb:cc, then query is returning more than expected
results (unexpected behaviour).

We are using QueryString Query.
