Add Filter To ElasticSearch Query

I'm trying to create a query where the user can search for ES documents where the brand field is equal to some string. Here is the query I currently have that works but has no filtering. I'm using elasticsearch-rails with Ruby on Rails. 

@products = Product.search(
     query:{
        function_score:{
          query: {    
            multi_match: {
              fields: ['brand^5', '_all'],
              query: "#{query}",
              fuzziness: "AUTO"
            }
          },
          field_value_factor:{
            field: "popularity",
            modifier: "log1p"
          }
        }
     }).page(page).per(25)

I've statically assigned a brand name to the filter for testing purposes. In this case the user should be seeing results for their search keyword where the brand name is "NordicTrack". 

query:{
        function_score:{
          query: {    
            multi_match: {
              fields: ['brand^5', '_all'],
              query: "#{query}",
              fuzziness: "AUTO"
            }
          },
          filter: {
            term: {"brand":"NordicTrack"}
          }, 
          field_value_factor:{
            field: "popularity",
            modifier: "log1p"
          }
        }
     }
     ).page(page).per(25)

This query gives me the following error:

[400] {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"parsing_exception","reason":"no [query] registered for [filter]","line":1,"col":139}],"type":"parsing_exception","reason":"no [query] registered for [filter]","line":1,"col":139},"status":400}

I'm not sure why this isn't working. Any help would be appreciated!

Try using a filtered query like this:

  query: {
    function_score: {
      query: {
        filtered: {
          query: {
            multi_match: {
              fields: ['brand^5', '_all'],
              query: "#{query}",
              fuzziness: "AUTO"
            }
          },
          filter: {
            term: {
              brand: "NordicTrack"
            }
          }
        }
      },
      field_value_factor:{
        field: "popularity",
        modifier: "log1p"
      }
    }
  }

I'm not sure about how Elasticsearch-rails with Ruby on Rails parses Query. But I tried below query in Kibana :

GET test/testt/_search
{
  "query": {
    "filter": {
      "term": {
        "brand": "NordicTrack"
      }
    }
  }
}

which is somewhat similar to your part of the query which is giving you the error and I too got that same error. But when I wrap the term query with bool query then it returns desired results. Query : 

GET test/_search
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "filter": {
        "term": {
          "brand": "NordicTrack"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Give it a Shot.
