Hey, the completion suggester does not execute a real search query as it uses different data structures. This also means, that it does not support filters. There are plans to support something like a context in order to have a lightweight filter, see https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/3959
This will allow you suggest only for products in a certain category or for restaurants around you (as it also has geo support). --Alex On Wed, Jan 29, 2014 at 1:18 PM, Ilija Subasic <subasic.il...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, > I am trying to combine it with the query or a filter with suggester, so > that suggestions are returned only for the hits.
