I am trying to frame an ElasticSearch query to fetch some results from my index for a search engine project. I am using pproximate KNN for the same. Now, I have a couple of conditions that I want to add to my KNN query but it doesn't seem to be working as expected.
Here is a sample of my full query.
{
"_source": {
"includes": [
"id",
"name"
]
},
"from": 0,
"size": 60,
"query": {
"bool": {
"must_not": [
{
"term": {
"id": 12345
}
}
]
}
},
"knn": {
"field": "text_embedding.predicted_value",
"k": 100,
"num_candidates": 300,
"query_vector_builder": {
"text_embedding": {
"model_id": "sentence-transformers__all-minilm-l6-v2",
"model_text": "Loreum Epsom"
}
}
}
}
...the "id" field is mapped as an 'integer' in my elasticsearch Index. It was expected that the results must not include the _doc with "id" = 12345 but it returns the _doc with that "id". what's wrong?
If you want to exclude a specific set of documents, you need to use a filtered knn query (available since ES 8.4):
