In a few previous PR's we restructured the ES|QL docs to make it possible to generate them dynamically. This PR just moves a few files around to make the query languages docs easier to work with, and a little more organized like the ES|QL docs. A bit part of this was setting up redirects to the new locations, so other repo's could correctly link to the elasticsearch docs.

# Span multi-term query [query-dsl-span-multi-term-query]
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `span_multi` query allows you to wrap a `multi term query` (one of wildcard, fuzzy, prefix, range or regexp query) as a `span query`, so it can be nested. Example:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
GET /_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"span_multi": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"prefix": { "user.id": { "value": "ki" } }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A boost can also be associated with the query:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
GET /_search
|
|
{
|
|
"query": {
|
|
"span_multi": {
|
|
"match": {
|
|
"prefix": { "user.id": { "value": "ki", "boost": 1.08 } }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
::::{warning}
|
|
`span_multi` queries will hit too many clauses failure if the number of terms that match the query exceeds the `indices.query.bool.max_clause_count` [search setting](/reference/elasticsearch/configuration-reference/search-settings.md). To avoid an unbounded expansion you can set the [rewrite method](/reference/query-languages/query-dsl/query-dsl-multi-term-rewrite.md) of the multi term query to `top_terms_*` rewrite. Or, if you use `span_multi` on `prefix` query only, you can activate the [`index_prefixes`](/reference/elasticsearch/mapping-reference/index-prefixes.md) field option of the `text` field instead. This will rewrite any prefix query on the field to a single term query that matches the indexed prefix.
