Hello, Rita,
Thank you for writing to us.
When requests from Flexmonster are passed to the endpoint on your Node.js back-end, you can modify the queries to add some extra filters. After this, you redirect the updated request to Elasticsearch, then redirect the response back to Flexmonster.
As about the event fired in Flexmonster when we hit fields apply button, please check filterclose event: https://www.flexmonster.com/api/filterclose/
Please let me know if you have questions.
Regards,
Tanya
