Hi, the sql translate feature converts from SQL --\> DSL.

> **[SQL Translate API | Elasticsearch Guide \[8.15\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/sql-translate.html)**

Is there a feature to do the reverse? i.e. convert from DSL to Elastic SQL ?

Thanks

I did inquire about this in past (version 7.x) but that was no such feature at that time. Hopefully it is now. finger cross
