Multiple filters and an aggregate in elasticsearch

Question

How can I use a filter in connection with an aggregate in elasticsearch?

The official documentation gives only trivial examples for filter and for aggregations and n

Answer 1

Just for reference, as for the version 7.2, I tried with something as follows to achieve multiple filters for aggregation:

• filter aggregation to filter for aggregation
• use bool to set up the compound query
