The syntax is valid in all those three examples, the right one depends on what you need.
The first query executes a proximity search (you can think to a phrase search, for simplicity) so it returns no result because probably you don't have any matching docs with that whole literal. The second is querying the my_text_field for all terms which compose the value between parenthesis. You can think to a query where each term is an optional clause, something like mytextfield:jurassic OR mytextfiekd:park... (it's not exactly an OR but this could give you the idea= The third example is not doing what you think. My_text_field is used only with the first term (Jurassic) while the others are using the default field. Something like mytextfield:jurassic OR defaultfield:park OR defaultfield:the.... That's the reason you have so many results (I guess the default field is a catch-all field) Sorry for typos I'm using my mobile Andrea Il mer 11 lug 2018, 17:54 Wei <weiwan...@gmail.com> ha scritto: > Hi, > > I am running filter query on a field of text_general type and see > completely different results for the following queries: > > fq= my_text_field:"Jurassic park the movie" returns 0 > result > > fq= my_text_field:(Jurassic park the movie) returns 20 > result > > fq= my_text_field:Jurassic park the movie returns > thousands of results > > > Which one is the correct syntax?
