Hi all,
    I have two indexes,  and I want to check whether the data from one index=a exists in the other index=b, and extract the data from the other index=a

 

 

index=a 
id
1
1
2
3
3

index=b
id,name1,name2
1,10,a1
1,9,a2
3,9,a1
4,10,a1
4,12,a2

i want the result=
id,name1,name2
1,10,a1
1,9,a2
3,9,a1

 

 

        Anyone, have a good way to guide
       Thank you!
