Which of the following JSON snippets correctly represents a match_phrase query searching for the phrase "machine learning" in the field "title"?

A{ "query": { "match_phrase": { "title": "machine learning" } } }

B{ "query": { "match": { "title": "machine learning" } } }

C{ "query": { "match_phrase": { "title": ["machine", "learning"] } } }

D{ "query": { "match_phrase": "machine learning" } }

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify the correct structure
The match_phrase query requires a field name with a string value representing the phrase.
Step 2: Evaluate each option
{ "query": { "match_phrase": { "title": "machine learning" } } } correctly uses the field "title" with the phrase as a string. { "query": { "match": { "title": "machine learning" } } } uses match instead of match_phrase. { "query": { "match_phrase": { "title": ["machine", "learning"] } } } incorrectly uses an array instead of a string. { "query": { "match_phrase": "machine learning" } } omits the field name.
Final Answer:
{ "query": { "match_phrase": { "title": "machine learning" } } } -> Option A
