Term Query Not Matching Certain Words

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Not able to make any sense of this:

{"from":0,"size":20,"sort":{"created_time":"desc"},"query":{"term":{"tags":{"value":"permissions"}}}}

Returns as expected:

{"took":0,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":1,"max_score":null,"hits":[{"_index":"blog","_type":"BlogPost","_id":"4a7a21b1-c20f-4131-9938-6306319f3102","_score":null,
"_source" : {
"year": 2013,
"month": 10,
"day": 17,
"created_time": 1382026481,
"id": "4a7a21b1-c20f-4131-9938-6306319f3102",
"tags": [
"permissions",
"UGC",
"photographer"
]
},"sort":[1382026481]}]}}

And:
{"from":0,"size":20,"sort":{"created_time":"desc"},"query":{"term":{"tags":{"value":"photographer"}}}}

returns as expected... but
{"from":0,"size":20,"sort":{"created_time":"desc"},"query":{"term":{"tags":{"value":"UGC"}}}}
returns nothing.

Tags is mapped simply as "tags":{"type":"string"}.

Try with ugc (lower case).

Just so you know, the reason you need to lowercase ugc yourself is because
a term query is not analyzed. If you were to use a match query which is
analyzed, your query should work:

{"from":0,"size":20,"sort":{"created_time":"desc"},"query":{"match":{"tags":
"UGC"}}}

Thanks,
