Something like Wildcard Filter?

Is there any way to filter a non-analyzed by "starts with?" Prefix
filter does work because it looks at each term whereas I need to look
at the whole value of the field. What I need is like the wildcard
query, except a filter. Is there any way to accomplish this? I spent
some time with the script filter but came up empty so far.

If I've understood you correctly, then the prefix filter should work.

Do you want to gist (Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic) an example
showing what you're trying to achieve and why it doesn't work?

Prefix filter does not work. I can gist if needed, but it's pretty
simple to explain. Assume three documents with values in a certain
field of:

"blue"
"blue red"
"red blue"

I need to filter documents where the field starts with "blue" (first
and second documents). A preview filter of "blue" will match all
three. That's because (it seems) it looks at terms (individual
words).

You said you wanted to use this on a non-analyzed field.

in which case, a prefix query works:

I'm feeling stupid again. The field is question was mapped not-
analyzed. However somehow the mapping got changed. I fixed that, and
it works just as you said. Thanks for taking the time to prove it.
