=== 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:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET /_search
{
"query": {
"span_multi":{
"match":{
"prefix" : { "user" : { "value" : "ki" } }
}
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
A boost can also be associated with the query:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET /_search
{
"query": {
"span_multi":{
"match":{
"prefix" : { "user" : { "value" : "ki", "boost" : 1.08 } }
}
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
WARNING: By default `span_multi queries are rewritten to a `span_or` query
containing **all** the expanded terms. This can be expensive if the number of expanded
terms is large. To avoid an unbounded expansion you can set the
<<query-dsl-multi-term-rewrite,rewrite method>> of the multi term query to `top_terms_*`
rewrite. Or, if you use `span_multi` on `prefix` query only, you can
activate the <<index-prefix-config,`index_prefixes`>> field option of the `text` field instead. This will
rewrite any prefix query on the field to a a single term query that matches the indexed prefix.
