-If you need to know which of the clauses in the bool query matched the documents
-returned from the query, you can use
-<<request-body-search-queries-and-filters,named queries>> to assign a name to
-each clause.
+Each query accepts a `_name` in its top level definition. You can use named
+queries to track which queries matched returned documents. If named queries are
+used, the response includes a `matched_queries` property for each hit.
