Sum aggregation on Unique Data in ElasticSearch

Question

I am trying to get total unique record and sum of amount of those unique data. How to get it in Elastic Search query.My Sample input data is

{"amt":"2.9",
"recName":"Item2",
"recID":"r1",
"exeDate":"2022-03-19T02:51:06.948Z",
"inputDate":"2022-03-19"}
{"amt":"2.9",
"recName":"Item2",
"recID":"r1",
"exeDate":"2022-03-19T02:52:06.948Z",
"inputDate":"2022-03-19"}
{"amt":"1.8",
"recName":"Item1",
"recID":"r2",
"exeDate":"2022-03-19T02:51:06.948Z",
"inputDate":"2022-03-19"}

I am expecting output:

recName: Item1, Item2
recNameCount : 2
amount: 4.7

First, You can defind index mapping which have field amt as float type. like below:

{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "amt":{
        "type": "float"
      },
      "recName":{
        "type": "keyword"
      }
    }
  }
}

After, You can use aggregation for your expected result as below:

{
  "size": 0,
  "aggs": {
    "RecName": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "recName",
        "size": 10,
        "order": {
          "_key": "asc"
        }
      },
      "aggs": {
        "amount": {
          "avg": {
            "field": "amt"
          }
        }
      }
    },
    "unique_count": {
      "cardinality": {
        "field": "recName"
      }
    },
    "sum_total":{
      "sum_bucket": {
        "buckets_path": "RecName>amount"
      }
    }
  }
}

• First use Term Aggregation on recName field which will give unique name.
• Second use Avg Aggregation on amt field (inner aggregation insideRecName to just get amout per item).
• Third, use Cardinality Aggregation on recName field for getting distinct values.
• Forth, use Sum Bucket Aggregation to sum on amt field.
