i am visualising bugzilla bugs.

In kibana search i am giving query like  
status.raw:"VERIFIED"OR"CLOSED"OR"RESOLVED"  
But while searching that , kibana is also searching these words in other fileds and giving unexpected result.But i only want to search in status field.

How can i search only for a single filed in kibana search ?  
how can i filter for a exact phrase in kibana filter?

That's asking for the verified value in status.raw, but also any other fields and documents that have closed or resolved.

You need to use `status.raw:"VERIFIED" OR status.raw:"CLOSED" OR status.raw:"RESOLVED"`. Take a look at [Search your data | Kibana Guide [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/search.html)
