Thanks.

There is no such log.

@Xon has Search Improvements add-on which supports viewing DSL queries.

What is "DSL" queries? This is log for search queries?

What is "DSL" queries?

Elasticsearch provides a full Query DSL (Domain Specific Language) based on JSON to define queries. Think of the Query DSL as an AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) of queries, consisting of two types of clauses

Sauce: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl.html

This is log for search queries?

Logged DSL queries would look something like this:

{"sort":["_score",{"date":"desc"}],"docvalue_fields":["discussion_id","user","date"],"_source":false,"size":200,"query":{"function_score":{"query":{"simple_query_string":{"query":"keyword goes here","fields":["title^4.4"],"default_operator":"and"}},"functions":[{"exp":{"date":{"origin":1615704988,"decay":0.5,"scale":31536000}}}]}}}

which if you further beautify would look like

{
  "sort": [
    "_score",
    {
      "date": "desc"
    }
  ],
  "docvalue_fields": [
    "discussion_id",
    "user",
    "date"
  ],
  "_source": false,
  "size": 200,
  "query": {
    "function_score": {
      "query": {
        "simple_query_string": {
          "query": "keyword goes here",
          "fields": [
            "title^4.4"
          ],
          "default_operator": "and"
        }
      },
      "functions": [
        {
          "exp": {
            "date": {
              "origin": 1615704988,
              "decay": 0.5,
              "scale": 31536000
            }
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

That feature is really a debug tool rather than useful for observing what are popular search terms

How do we observe popular search terms?

 

[Chromaniac]

google analytics should work i suppose. though it would require creating a custom dashboard panel. not sure if it can strip url data to separate keywords from the search urls.

There is no such log.

In our use case, we can use those terms for PPC. Does anyone have a solution?
