Elasticsearch - Advanced Patterns

You wrote this query but get an error:

{"sort": [{"price": "asc"}], "size": 3, "search_after": [100]}

What is the likely cause?

AThe size parameter is too large

BThe search_after value type does not match the sort field type

CThe sort order must be descending for search_after

DThe search_after array must be empty

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check the data types of sort and search_after
If the price field is a float but search_after uses an integer or incompatible type, it causes an error.
Step 2: Confirm other options are invalid
Size 3 is valid, sort order can be ascending, and search_after cannot be empty.
Final Answer:
The search_after value type does not match the sort field type -> Option B
Quick Check:
search_after type must match sort field type [OK]

Quick Trick: Match search_after values' types exactly to sort fields [OK]
