Pinned Queryedit

Promotes selected documents to rank higher than those matching a given query. This feature is typically used to guide searchers to curated documents that are promoted over and above any "organic" matches for a search. The promoted or "pinned" documents are identified using the document IDs stored in the _id field.

Example requestedit

        "match": {
          "description": "iphone"
        }
      }
    }
