ElasticSearch按数组项过滤

Question

I have the following record in ES:

"authInput" : {
    "uID" : "foo",
    "userName" : "asdfasdfasdfasdf",
    "userType" : "External",
    "clientType" : "Unknown",
    "authType" : "Redemption_regular",
    "uIDExtensionFields" : 
    [
        {
            "key" : "IsAccountCreation",
            "value" : "true"
        }
    ],
    "externalReferences" : []
}

"uIDExtensionFields" is an array of key/value pairs. I want to query ES to find all records where:

1. "uIDExtensionFields.key" = "IsAccountCreation"
2. AND "uIDExtensionFields.value" = "true"

This is the filter that I think I should be using but it never returns any data.

GET devdev/authEvent/_search
{
   "size": 10,
    "filter": {
        "and": {
           "filters": [
              {
                  "term": {
                     "authInput.uIDExtensionFields.key" : "IsAccountCreation"
                  }
              },
              {
               "term": {
                  "authInput.uIDExtensionFields.value": "true"
               }   
              }
           ]
        }
    }
}

Any help you guys could give me would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

UPDATE: WITH THE HELP OF THE RESPONSES BELOW HERE IS HOW I SOLVED MY PROBLEM:

1. lowercase the value that I was searching for. (changed "IsAccoutCreation" to "isaccountcreation")
2. Updated the mapping so that "uIDExtensionFields" is a nested type
3. Updated my filter to the following:

_

GET devhilden/authEvent/_search
{
   "size": 10,
   "filter": {
      "nested": {
         "path": "authInput.uIDExtensionFields",
         "query": {
            "bool": {
               "must": [
                  {
                     "term": {
                        "authInput.uIDExtensionFields.key": "isaccountcreation"
                     }
                  },
                  {
                     "term": {
                        "authInput.uIDExtensionFields.value": "true"
                     }
                  }                  
               ]
            }
         }
      }
   }
}

There are a few things probably going wrong here.

First, as mconlin points out, you probably have a mapping with the standard analyzer for your key field. It'll lowercase the key. You probably want to specify "index": "not_analyzed" for the field.

Secondly, you'll have to use nested mappings for this document structure and specify the key and the value in a nested filter. That's because otherwise, you'll get a match for the following document:

"uIDExtensionFields" : [
    {
        "key" : "IsAccountCreation",
        "value" : "false"
    },
    {
        "key" : "SomeOtherField",
        "value" : "true"
    }
]

Thirdly, you'll want to be using the bool -filter's must and not and to ensure proper cachability.

Lastly, you'll want to put your filter in the filtered -query. The top-level filter is for when you want hits to be filtered, but facets/aggregations to not be. That's why it's renamed to post_filter in 1.0.

Here's a few resources you'll want to check out:

• Troubleshooting Elasticsearch searches, for Beginners covers the first two issues.

• Managing Relations in ElasticSearch covers nested docs (and parent/child)
