Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to transform a SearchQueryBuilder  
into its corresponding Json format.

When I use toString() on a SearchQueryBuilder I get a partial Json :  
{  
"from" : 0,  
"size" : 200,  
"query" : {  
"bool" : {  
"should" : [ {  
"wrapper" : {  
"query" :  
"eyJib29sIjp7Im11c3QiOlt7IndpbGRjYXJkIjp7InN0cmluZ0ZpZWxkIjoiKnZhbHVlMSoifX0seyJtYXRjaCI6eyJzdHJpbmdGaWVsZCI6InZhbHVlMSJ9fV19fQ=="  
}  
}, {  
"wrapper" : {  
"query" :  
"eyJib29sIjp7Im11c3QiOlt7IndpbGRjYXJkIjp7InN0cmluZ0ZpZWxkIjoiKnZhbHVlMioifX0seyJtYXRjaCI6eyJzdHJpbmdGaWVsZCI6InZhbHVlMiJ9fV19fQ=="  
}  
} ]  
}  
},  
"fields" : ["body"]  
}

Can I have the full Json ?

Thanks in advance.  
Pierre.

Hi Pierre,

Why do you think it's partial?  
What is missing here?

Hi David,

I would klike to decode the wrapper part :  
"wrapper" : {  
"query" :  
"eyJib29sIjp7Im11c3QiOlt7IndpbGRjYXJkIjp7InN0cmluZ0ZpZWxkIjoiKnZhbHVlMSoifX0seyJtYXRjaCI6eyJzdHJpbmdGaWVsZCI6InZhbHVlMSJ9fV19fQ=="  
}

I don't understand this format

So do I.

What is your initial request (in Java)?

It is a WrapperQueryBuilder. I understand that the value of the "query"  
param is the initial Json Base64 encoded.

I never used a WrapperQueryBuilder.  
How do you add your JSON query in it? String? Binary?  
If you are using binary content, it looks fine to me that Elasticsearch display your query as you sent it.

Do you really need to use a WrapperQuery?

## My 2 cents
