I need to add suggest queries along with my main query. I'm using the Java API and the SearchRequestBuilder. Is there a way to add the suggestion query to the SearchRequestBuilder query? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

I've found the SuggestBuilder class, can anyone shed some light how I can add the SuggestBuilder object to my query?

The suggest API is only available in 0.90+. I have never tried it, but according to the source, you add a SuggestBuilder to a SearchRequestBuilder via the addSuggestion method: [https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/blob/master/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/search/SearchRequestBuilder.java#L662](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/blob/master/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/action/search/SearchRequestBuilder.java#L662) -- Ivan On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 2:00 PM, es newbie [dan.tuffery@gmail.com](mailto:dan.tuffery@gmail.com) wrote: > I've found the SuggestBuilder class, can anyone shed some light how I can > add the SuggestBuilder object to my query? > > Thanks > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com). > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/groups/opt\_out](https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
