[[term-level-queries]] == Term-level queries You can use **term-level queries** to find documents based on precise values in structured data. Examples of structured data include date ranges, IP addresses, prices, or product IDs. Unlike <<full-text-queries, full-text queries>>, term-level queries do not analyze search terms. Instead, term-level queries match the exact terms stored in a field. [NOTE] ==== Term-level queries still normalize search terms for `keyword` fields with the `normalizer` property. For more details, see <<normalizer, `normalizer`>>. ==== [float] [[term-level-query-types]] === Types of term-level queries <<query-dsl-exists-query,`exists` query>>:: Returns documents that contain any indexed value for a field. <<query-dsl-fuzzy-query,`fuzzy` query>>:: Returns documents that contain terms similar to the search term. {es} measures similarity, or fuzziness, using a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance[Levenshtein edit distance]. <<query-dsl-ids-query,`ids` query>>:: Returns documents based on their <<mapping-id-field, document IDs>>. <<query-dsl-prefix-query,`prefix` query>>:: Returns documents that contain a specific prefix in a provided field. <<query-dsl-range-query,`range` query>>:: Returns documents that contain terms within a provided range. <<query-dsl-regexp-query,`regexp` query>>:: Returns documents that contain terms matching a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression[regular expression]. <<query-dsl-term-query,`term` query>>:: Returns documents that contain an exact term in a provided field. <<query-dsl-terms-query,`terms` query>>:: Returns documents that contain one or more exact terms in a provided field. <<query-dsl-terms-set-query,`terms_set` query>>:: Returns documents that contain a minimum number of exact terms in a provided field. You can define the minimum number of matching terms using a field or script. <<query-dsl-type-query,`type` query>>:: Returns documents of the specified type. <<query-dsl-wildcard-query,`wildcard` query>>:: Returns documents that contain terms matching a wildcard pattern. include::exists-query.asciidoc[] include::fuzzy-query.asciidoc[] include::ids-query.asciidoc[] include::prefix-query.asciidoc[] include::range-query.asciidoc[] include::regexp-query.asciidoc[] include::term-query.asciidoc[] include::terms-query.asciidoc[] include::terms-set-query.asciidoc[] include::type-query.asciidoc[] include::wildcard-query.asciidoc[]
