POST _application/search_application/my-app/_search
{
  "params": {
    "value": "my first query",
    "size": 10,
    "from": 0,
    "text_fields": [
        {
            "name": "title",
            "boost": 10
        },
        {
            "name": "text",
            "boost": 1
        }
    ]
  }
}

The expected results are search results from the query that was run.
