I'm trying to define a query in timelion:

```
.es(index=rspec_issue_miner_v1, q=priority.name.keyword:(Blocker OR Critical))

```

However I get an error

`Timelion: SyntaxError: {"type":"incompleteFunction","function":"es","location":{"min":1,"max":4},"text":".es"}`  
How can I define this query properly?

Put your queries between single quotes and try to run it again.

```auto
.es(index=rspec_issue_miner_v1, q='priority.name.keyword:(Blocker OR Critical)')

```
