Hi, I'm trying to integrate results from a third party source with our existing search. The idea is to include the top 5 results from this source as the top result of our search.Though the external data is indexed in our system, the use case dictates us to use their ranking (by getting the top five result). Problem is, their result returns only text, title, and url. To construct the final response, I need to include a bunch of metadata fields which is only available in our index. Here are the steps: 1. Query external source, get top five results. 2. Query our index based on url from each result, retrieve their corresponding id. 3. Query our index and pass the ids as elevateIds (dynamic query elevation)
This probably isn't a clean solution as it adds the overhead of an additional query to retrieve document ids. Just wondering if there's a better way to handle this situation, perhaps a way to combine step 2 and 3 in a single query or a different approach altogether? Any pointers will be appreciated. -Thanks, Shamik
