Get index information

GET /_cat/indices

Get high-level information about indices in a cluster, including backing indices for data streams.

Use this request to get the following information for each index in a cluster:

Get anomaly detection jobs Added in 7.7.0

GET /_cat/ml/anomaly_detectors

Get configuration and usage information for anomaly detection jobs. This API returns a maximum of 10,000 jobs. If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have monitor_ml, monitor, manage_ml, or manage cluster privileges to use this API.

IMPORTANT: CAT APIs are only intended for human consumption using the Kibana console or command line. They are not intended for use by applications. For application consumption, use the get anomaly detection job statistics API.

Query parameters

  • Specifies what to do when the request:

    • Contains wildcard expressions and there are no jobs that match.
    • Contains the _all string or no identifiers and there are no matches.
    • Contains wildcard expressions and there are only partial matches.

    If true, the API returns an empty jobs array when there are no matches and the subset of results when there are partial matches. If false, the API returns a 404 status code when there are no matches or only partial matches.

  • bytes string

    The unit used to display byte values.

    Values are b, kb, mb, gb, tb, or pb.

  • h string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list of column names to display.

  • s string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list of column names or column aliases used to sort the response.

  • time string

    The unit used to display time values.

    Values are nanos, micros, ms, s, m, h, or d.

Responses

  • 200 application/json
    Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • id string
    • state string

      Values are closing, closed, opened, failed, or opening.

    • For open jobs only, the amount of time the job has been opened.

    • For open anomaly detection jobs only, contains messages relating to the selection of a node to run the job.

    • The number of input documents that have been processed by the anomaly detection job. This value includes documents with missing fields, since they are nonetheless analyzed. If you use datafeeds and have aggregations in your search query, the processed_record_count is the number of aggregation results processed, not the number of Elasticsearch documents.

    • The total number of fields in all the documents that have been processed by the anomaly detection job. Only fields that are specified in the detector configuration object contribute to this count. The timestamp is not included in this count.

    • The number of input documents posted to the anomaly detection job.

    • The total number of fields in input documents posted to the anomaly detection job. This count includes fields that are not used in the analysis. However, be aware that if you are using a datafeed, it extracts only the required fields from the documents it retrieves before posting them to the job.

    • The number of input documents with either a missing date field or a date that could not be parsed.

    • The number of input documents that are missing a field that the anomaly detection job is configured to analyze. Input documents with missing fields are still processed because it is possible that not all fields are missing. If you are using datafeeds or posting data to the job in JSON format, a high missing_field_count is often not an indication of data issues. It is not necessarily a cause for concern.

    • The number of input documents that have a timestamp chronologically preceding the start of the current anomaly detection bucket offset by the latency window. This information is applicable only when you provide data to the anomaly detection job by using the post data API. These out of order documents are discarded, since jobs require time series data to be in ascending chronological order.

    • The number of buckets which did not contain any data. If your data contains many empty buckets, consider increasing your bucket_span or using functions that are tolerant to gaps in data such as mean, non_null_sum or non_zero_count.

    • The number of buckets that contained few data points compared to the expected number of data points. If your data contains many sparse buckets, consider using a longer bucket_span.

    • The total number of buckets processed.

    • The timestamp of the earliest chronologically input document.

    • The timestamp of the latest chronologically input document.

    • The timestamp at which data was last analyzed, according to server time.

    • The timestamp of the last bucket that did not contain any data.

    • The timestamp of the last bucket that was considered sparse.

    • Values are ok, soft_limit, or hard_limit.

    • The upper limit for model memory usage, checked on increasing values.

    • The number of by field values that were analyzed by the models. This value is cumulative for all detectors in the job.

    • The number of over field values that were analyzed by the models. This value is cumulative for all detectors in the job.

    • The number of partition field values that were analyzed by the models. This value is cumulative for all detectors in the job.

    • The number of buckets for which new entities in incoming data were not processed due to insufficient model memory. This situation is also signified by a hard_limit: memory_status property value.

    • Values are ok or warn.

    • The number of documents that have had a field categorized.

    • The number of categories created by categorization.

    • The number of categories that match more than 1% of categorized documents.

    • The number of categories that match just one categorized document.

    • The number of categories created by categorization that will never be assigned again because another category’s definition makes it a superset of the dead category. Dead categories are a side effect of the way categorization has no prior training.

    • The number of times that categorization wanted to create a new category but couldn’t because the job had hit its model_memory_limit. This count does not track which specific categories failed to be created. Therefore you cannot use this value to determine the number of unique categories that were missed.

    • The timestamp when the model stats were gathered, according to server time.

    • The timestamp of the last record when the model stats were gathered.

    • The number of individual forecasts currently available for the job. A value of one or more indicates that forecasts exist.

    • The minimum memory usage in bytes for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The maximum memory usage in bytes for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The average memory usage in bytes for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The total memory usage in bytes for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The minimum number of model_forecast documents written for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The maximum number of model_forecast documents written for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The average number of model_forecast documents written for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The total number of model_forecast documents written for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The minimum runtime in milliseconds for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The maximum runtime in milliseconds for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The average runtime in milliseconds for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • The total runtime in milliseconds for forecasts related to the anomaly detection job.

    • node.id string
    • The name of the assigned node.

    • The network address of the assigned node.

    • The number of bucket results produced by the job.

    • The sum of all bucket processing times, in milliseconds.

    • The minimum of all bucket processing times, in milliseconds.

    • The maximum of all bucket processing times, in milliseconds.

    • The exponential moving average of all bucket processing times, in milliseconds.

    • The exponential moving average of bucket processing times calculated in a one hour time window, in milliseconds.

For application consumption, use the index recovery API.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    A comma-separated list of data streams, indices, and aliases used to limit the request. Supports wildcards (*). To target all data streams and indices, omit this parameter or use * or _all.

Query parameters

  • If true, the response only includes ongoing shard recoveries.

  • bytes string

    The unit used to display byte values.

    Values are b, kb, mb, gb, tb, or pb.

  • detailed boolean

    If true, the response includes detailed information about shard recoveries.

  • index string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list or wildcard expression of index names to limit the returned information

  • h string | array[string]

    List of columns to appear in the response. Supports simple wildcards.

Get the pending cluster tasks

GET /_cluster/pending_tasks

Get information about cluster-level changes (such as create index, update mapping, allocate or fail shard) that have not yet taken effect.

NOTE: This API returns a list of any pending updates to the cluster state. These are distinct from the tasks reported by the task management API which include periodic tasks and tasks initiated by the user, such as node stats, search queries, or create index requests. However, if a user-initiated task such as a create index command causes a cluster state update, the activity of this task might be reported by both task api and pending cluster tasks API.

Query parameters

  • local boolean

    If true, the request retrieves information from the local node only. If false, information is retrieved from the master node.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

Responses

  • 200 application/json
    Hide response attribute Show response attribute object
    • tasks array[object] Required
      Hide tasks attributes Show tasks attributes object
      • executing boolean Required

        Indicates whether the pending tasks are currently executing or not.

      • insert_order number Required

        The number that represents when the task has been inserted into the task queue.

      • priority string Required

        The priority of the pending task. The valid priorities in descending priority order are: IMMEDIATE > URGENT > HIGH > NORMAL > LOW > LANGUID.

      • source string Required

        A general description of the cluster task that may include a reason and origin.

      • A duration. Units can be nanos, micros, ms (milliseconds), s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours) and d (days). Also accepts "0" without a unit and "-1" to indicate an unspecified value.

      • Time unit for milliseconds

Get the cluster state Added in 1.3.0

GET /_cluster/state

Get comprehensive information about the state of the cluster.

The cluster state is an internal data structure which keeps track of a variety of information needed by every node, including the identity and attributes of the other nodes in the cluster; cluster-wide settings; index metadata, including the mapping and settings for each index; the location and status of every shard copy in the cluster.

The elected master node ensures that every node in the cluster has a copy of the same cluster state. This API lets you retrieve a representation of this internal state for debugging or diagnostic purposes. You may need to consult the Elasticsearch source code to determine the precise meaning of the response.

By default the API will route requests to the elected master node since this node is the authoritative source of cluster states. You can also retrieve the cluster state held on the node handling the API request by adding the ?local=true query parameter.

Elasticsearch may need to expend significant effort to compute a response to this API in larger clusters, and the response may comprise a very large quantity of data. If you use this API repeatedly, your cluster may become unstable.

WARNING: The response is a representation of an internal data structure. Its format is not subject to the same compatibility guarantees as other more stable APIs and may change from version to version. Do not query this API using external monitoring tools. Instead, obtain the information you require using other more stable cluster APIs.

Query parameters

  • Whether to ignore if a wildcard indices expression resolves into no concrete indices. (This includes _all string or when no indices have been specified)

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Whether to expand wildcard expression to concrete indices that are open, closed or both.

  • Return settings in flat format (default: false)

  • Whether specified concrete indices should be ignored when unavailable (missing or closed)

  • local boolean

    Return local information, do not retrieve the state from master node (default: false)

  • Specify timeout for connection to master

  • Wait for the metadata version to be equal or greater than the specified metadata version

  • The maximum time to wait for wait_for_metadata_version before timing out

Query parameters

  • Include remote cluster data into the response

Get cluster repositories metering Technical preview

GET /_nodes/{node_id}/_repositories_metering

Get repositories metering information for a cluster. This API exposes monotonically non-decreasing counters and it is expected that clients would durably store the information needed to compute aggregations over a period of time. Additionally, the information exposed by this API is volatile, meaning that it will not be present after node restarts.

Path parameters

  • node_id string | array[string] Required

    Comma-separated list of node IDs or names used to limit returned information. All the nodes selective options are explained here.

Responses

  • 200 application/json

    • _nodes object
      Hide _nodes attributes Show _nodes attributes object
      • failures array[object]
        Hide failures attributes Show failures attributes object
      • total number Required

        Total number of nodes selected by the request.

      • successful number Required

        Number of nodes that responded successfully to the request.

      • failed number Required

        Number of nodes that rejected the request or failed to respond. If this value is not 0, a reason for the rejection or failure is included in the response.

    • cluster_name string Required
    • nodes object Required

      Contains repositories metering information for the nodes selected by the request.

        • repository_location object Required
          Hide repository_location attributes Show repository_location attributes object
        • Time unit for milliseconds

        • Time unit for milliseconds

        • archived boolean Required

          A flag that tells whether or not this object has been archived. When a repository is closed or updated the repository metering information is archived and kept for a certain period of time. This allows retrieving the repository metering information of previous repository instantiations.

        • request_counts object Required

Path parameters

  • node_id string | array[string] Required

    List of node IDs or names used to limit returned information.

Query parameters

  • If true, known idle threads (e.g. waiting in a socket select, or to get a task from an empty queue) are filtered out.

  • interval string

    The interval to do the second sampling of threads.

  • Number of samples of thread stacktrace.

  • threads number

    Specifies the number of hot threads to provide information for.

  • timeout string

Connector

The connector and sync jobs APIs provide a convenient way to create and manage Elastic connectors and sync jobs in an internal index. Connectors are Elasticsearch integrations for syncing content from third-party data sources, which can be deployed on Elastic Cloud or hosted on your own infrastructure. This API provides an alternative to relying solely on Kibana UI for connector and sync job management. The API comes with a set of validations and assertions to ensure that the state representation in the internal index remains valid. This API requires the manage_connector privilege or, for read-only endpoints, the monitor_connector privilege.

Create or update a document in an index

PUT /{index}/_doc/{id}

Add a JSON document to the specified data stream or index and make it searchable. If the target is an index and the document already exists, the request updates the document and increments its version.

NOTE: You cannot use this API to send update requests for existing documents in a data stream.

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the following index privileges for the target data stream, index, or index alias:

  • To add or overwrite a document using the PUT /<target>/_doc/<_id> request format, you must have the create, index, or write index privilege.
  • To add a document using the POST /<target>/_doc/ request format, you must have the create_doc, create, index, or write index privilege.
  • To automatically create a data stream or index with this API request, you must have the auto_configure, create_index, or manage index privilege.

Automatic data stream creation requires a matching index template with data stream enabled.

NOTE: Replica shards might not all be started when an indexing operation returns successfully. By default, only the primary is required. Set wait_for_active_shards to change this default behavior.

Automatically create data streams and indices

If the request's target doesn't exist and matches an index template with a data_stream definition, the index operation automatically creates the data stream.

If the target doesn't exist and doesn't match a data stream template, the operation automatically creates the index and applies any matching index templates.

NOTE: Elasticsearch includes several built-in index templates. To avoid naming collisions with these templates, refer to index pattern documentation.

If no mapping exists, the index operation creates a dynamic mapping. By default, new fields and objects are automatically added to the mapping if needed.

Automatic index creation is controlled by the action.auto_create_index setting. If it is true, any index can be created automatically. You can modify this setting to explicitly allow or block automatic creation of indices that match specified patterns or set it to false to turn off automatic index creation entirely. Specify a comma-separated list of patterns you want to allow or prefix each pattern with + or - to indicate whether it should be allowed or blocked. When a list is specified, the default behaviour is to disallow.

NOTE: The action.auto_create_index setting affects the automatic creation of indices only. It does not affect the creation of data streams.

Optimistic concurrency control

Index operations can be made conditional and only be performed if the last modification to the document was assigned the sequence number and primary term specified by the if_seq_no and if_primary_term parameters. If a mismatch is detected, the operation will result in a VersionConflictException and a status code of 409.

Routing

By default, shard placement — or routing — is controlled by using a hash of the document's ID value. For more explicit control, the value fed into the hash function used by the router can be directly specified on a per-operation basis using the routing parameter.

When setting up explicit mapping, you can also use the _routing field to direct the index operation to extract the routing value from the document itself. This does come at the (very minimal) cost of an additional document parsing pass. If the _routing mapping is defined and set to be required, the index operation will fail if no routing value is provided or extracted.

NOTE: Data streams do not support custom routing unless they were created with the allow_custom_routing setting enabled in the template.

Distributed

The index operation is directed to the primary shard based on its route and performed on the actual node containing this shard. After the primary shard completes the operation, if needed, the update is distributed to applicable replicas.

Active shards

To improve the resiliency of writes to the system, indexing operations can be configured to wait for a certain number of active shard copies before proceeding with the operation. If the requisite number of active shard copies are not available, then the write operation must wait and retry, until either the requisite shard copies have started or a timeout occurs. By default, write operations only wait for the primary shards to be active before proceeding (that is to say wait_for_active_shards is 1). This default can be overridden in the index settings dynamically by setting index.write.wait_for_active_shards. To alter this behavior per operation, use the wait_for_active_shards request parameter.

Valid values are all or any positive integer up to the total number of configured copies per shard in the index (which is number_of_replicas+1). Specifying a negative value or a number greater than the number of shard copies will throw an error.

For example, suppose you have a cluster of three nodes, A, B, and C and you create an index index with the number of replicas set to 3 (resulting in 4 shard copies, one more copy than there are nodes). If you attempt an indexing operation, by default the operation will only ensure the primary copy of each shard is available before proceeding. This means that even if B and C went down and A hosted the primary shard copies, the indexing operation would still proceed with only one copy of the data. If wait_for_active_shards is set on the request to 3 (and all three nodes are up), the indexing operation will require 3 active shard copies before proceeding. This requirement should be met because there are 3 active nodes in the cluster, each one holding a copy of the shard. However, if you set wait_for_active_shards to all (or to 4, which is the same in this situation), the indexing operation will not proceed as you do not have all 4 copies of each shard active in the index. The operation will timeout unless a new node is brought up in the cluster to host the fourth copy of the shard.

It is important to note that this setting greatly reduces the chances of the write operation not writing to the requisite number of shard copies, but it does not completely eliminate the possibility, because this check occurs before the write operation starts. After the write operation is underway, it is still possible for replication to fail on any number of shard copies but still succeed on the primary. The _shards section of the API response reveals the number of shard copies on which replication succeeded and failed.

No operation (noop) updates

When updating a document by using this API, a new version of the document is always created even if the document hasn't changed. If this isn't acceptable use the _update API with detect_noop set to true. The detect_noop option isn't available on this API because it doesn’t fetch the old source and isn't able to compare it against the new source.

There isn't a definitive rule for when noop updates aren't acceptable. It's a combination of lots of factors like how frequently your data source sends updates that are actually noops and how many queries per second Elasticsearch runs on the shard receiving the updates.

Versioning

Each indexed document is given a version number. By default, internal versioning is used that starts at 1 and increments with each update, deletes included. Optionally, the version number can be set to an external value (for example, if maintained in a database). To enable this functionality, version_type should be set to external. The value provided must be a numeric, long value greater than or equal to 0, and less than around 9.2e+18.

NOTE: Versioning is completely real time, and is not affected by the near real time aspects of search operations. If no version is provided, the operation runs without any version checks.

When using the external version type, the system checks to see if the version number passed to the index request is greater than the version of the currently stored document. If true, the document will be indexed and the new version number used. If the value provided is less than or equal to the stored document's version number, a version conflict will occur and the index operation will fail. For example:

PUT my-index-000001/_doc/1?version=2&version_type=external
{
  "user": {
    "id": "elkbee"
  }
}

In this example, the operation will succeed since the supplied version of 2 is higher than the current document version of 1.
If the document was already updated and its version was set to 2 or higher, the indexing command will fail and result in a conflict (409 HTTP status code).

A nice side effect is that there is no need to maintain strict ordering of async indexing operations run as a result of changes to a source database, as long as version numbers from the source database are used.
Even the simple case of updating the Elasticsearch index using data from a database is simplified if external versioning is used, as only the latest version will be used if the index operations arrive out of order.
External documentation

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the data stream or index to target. If the target doesn't exist and matches the name or wildcard (*) pattern of an index template with a data_stream definition, this request creates the data stream. If the target doesn't exist and doesn't match a data stream template, this request creates the index. You can check for existing targets with the resolve index API.

  • id string Required

    A unique identifier for the document. To automatically generate a document ID, use the POST /<target>/_doc/ request format and omit this parameter.

Query parameters

  • Only perform the operation if the document has this primary term.

  • Only perform the operation if the document has this sequence number.

  • True or false if to include the document source in the error message in case of parsing errors.

  • op_type string

    Set to create to only index the document if it does not already exist (put if absent). If a document with the specified _id already exists, the indexing operation will fail. The behavior is the same as using the <index>/_create endpoint. If a document ID is specified, this paramater defaults to index. Otherwise, it defaults to create. If the request targets a data stream, an op_type of create is required.

    Values are index or create.

  • pipeline string

    The ID of the pipeline to use to preprocess incoming documents. If the index has a default ingest pipeline specified, then setting the value to _none disables the default ingest pipeline for this request. If a final pipeline is configured it will always run, regardless of the value of this parameter.

  • refresh string

    If true, Elasticsearch refreshes the affected shards to make this operation visible to search. If wait_for, it waits for a refresh to make this operation visible to search. If false, it does nothing with refreshes.

    Values are true, false, or wait_for.

  • routing string

    A custom value that is used to route operations to a specific shard.

  • timeout string

    The period the request waits for the following operations: automatic index creation, dynamic mapping updates, waiting for active shards.

    This parameter is useful for situations where the primary shard assigned to perform the operation might not be available when the operation runs. Some reasons for this might be that the primary shard is currently recovering from a gateway or undergoing relocation. By default, the operation will wait on the primary shard to become available for at least 1 minute before failing and responding with an error. The actual wait time could be longer, particularly when multiple waits occur.

  • version number

    An explicit version number for concurrency control. It must be a non-negative long number.

  • The version type.

    Values are internal, external, external_gte, or force.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. You can set it to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1). The default value of 1 means it waits for each primary shard to be active.

  • If true, the destination must be an index alias.

Delete documents Added in 5.0.0

POST /{index}/_delete_by_query

Deletes documents that match the specified query.

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the following index privileges for the target data stream, index, or alias:

  • read
  • delete or write

You can specify the query criteria in the request URI or the request body using the same syntax as the search API. When you submit a delete by query request, Elasticsearch gets a snapshot of the data stream or index when it begins processing the request and deletes matching documents using internal versioning. If a document changes between the time that the snapshot is taken and the delete operation is processed, it results in a version conflict and the delete operation fails.

NOTE: Documents with a version equal to 0 cannot be deleted using delete by query because internal versioning does not support 0 as a valid version number.

While processing a delete by query request, Elasticsearch performs multiple search requests sequentially to find all of the matching documents to delete. A bulk delete request is performed for each batch of matching documents. If a search or bulk request is rejected, the requests are retried up to 10 times, with exponential back off. If the maximum retry limit is reached, processing halts and all failed requests are returned in the response. Any delete requests that completed successfully still stick, they are not rolled back.

You can opt to count version conflicts instead of halting and returning by setting conflicts to proceed. Note that if you opt to count version conflicts the operation could attempt to delete more documents from the source than max_docs until it has successfully deleted max_docs documents, or it has gone through every document in the source query.

Throttling delete requests

To control the rate at which delete by query issues batches of delete operations, you can set requests_per_second to any positive decimal number. This pads each batch with a wait time to throttle the rate. Set requests_per_second to -1 to disable throttling.

Throttling uses a wait time between batches so that the internal scroll requests can be given a timeout that takes the request padding into account. The padding time is the difference between the batch size divided by the requests_per_second and the time spent writing. By default the batch size is 1000, so if requests_per_second is set to 500:

target_time = 1000 / 500 per second = 2 seconds
wait_time = target_time - write_time = 2 seconds - .5 seconds = 1.5 seconds

Since the batch is issued as a single _bulk request, large batch sizes cause Elasticsearch to create many requests and wait before starting the next set. This is "bursty" instead of "smooth".

Slicing

Delete by query supports sliced scroll to parallelize the delete process. This can improve efficiency and provide a convenient way to break the request down into smaller parts.

Setting slices to auto lets Elasticsearch choose the number of slices to use. This setting will use one slice per shard, up to a certain limit. If there are multiple source data streams or indices, it will choose the number of slices based on the index or backing index with the smallest number of shards. Adding slices to the delete by query operation creates sub-requests which means it has some quirks:

  • You can see these requests in the tasks APIs. These sub-requests are "child" tasks of the task for the request with slices.
  • Fetching the status of the task for the request with slices only contains the status of completed slices.
  • These sub-requests are individually addressable for things like cancellation and rethrottling.
  • Rethrottling the request with slices will rethrottle the unfinished sub-request proportionally.
  • Canceling the request with slices will cancel each sub-request.
  • Due to the nature of slices each sub-request won't get a perfectly even portion of the documents. All documents will be addressed, but some slices may be larger than others. Expect larger slices to have a more even distribution.
  • Parameters like requests_per_second and max_docs on a request with slices are distributed proportionally to each sub-request. Combine that with the earlier point about distribution being uneven and you should conclude that using max_docs with slices might not result in exactly max_docs documents being deleted.
  • Each sub-request gets a slightly different snapshot of the source data stream or index though these are all taken at approximately the same time.

If you're slicing manually or otherwise tuning automatic slicing, keep in mind that:

  • Query performance is most efficient when the number of slices is equal to the number of shards in the index or backing index. If that number is large (for example, 500), choose a lower number as too many slices hurts performance. Setting slices higher than the number of shards generally does not improve efficiency and adds overhead.
  • Delete performance scales linearly across available resources with the number of slices.

Whether query or delete performance dominates the runtime depends on the documents being reindexed and cluster resources.

Cancel a delete by query operation

Any delete by query can be canceled using the task cancel API. For example:

POST _tasks/r1A2WoRbTwKZ516z6NEs5A:36619/_cancel

The task ID can be found by using the get tasks API.

Cancellation should happen quickly but might take a few seconds. The get task status API will continue to list the delete by query task until this task checks that it has been cancelled and terminates itself.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    A comma-separated list of data streams, indices, and aliases to search. It supports wildcards (*). To search all data streams or indices, omit this parameter or use * or _all.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices. For example, a request targeting foo*,bar* returns an error if an index starts with foo but no index starts with bar.

  • analyzer string

    Analyzer to use for the query string. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • If true, wildcard and prefix queries are analyzed. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • What to do if delete by query hits version conflicts: abort or proceed.

    Values are abort or proceed.

  • The default operator for query string query: AND or OR. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

    Values are and, AND, or, or OR.

  • df string

    The field to use as default where no field prefix is given in the query string. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    The type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. It supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden.

  • from number

    Skips the specified number of documents.

  • If false, the request returns an error if it targets a missing or closed index.

  • lenient boolean

    If true, format-based query failures (such as providing text to a numeric field) in the query string will be ignored. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • max_docs number

    The maximum number of documents to process. Defaults to all documents. When set to a value less then or equal to scroll_size, a scroll will not be used to retrieve the results for the operation.

  • The node or shard the operation should be performed on. It is random by default.

  • refresh boolean

    If true, Elasticsearch refreshes all shards involved in the delete by query after the request completes. This is different than the delete API's refresh parameter, which causes just the shard that received the delete request to be refreshed. Unlike the delete API, it does not support wait_for.

  • If true, the request cache is used for this request. Defaults to the index-level setting.

  • The throttle for this request in sub-requests per second.

  • routing string

    A custom value used to route operations to a specific shard.

  • q string

    A query in the Lucene query string syntax.

  • scroll string

    The period to retain the search context for scrolling.

  • The size of the scroll request that powers the operation.

  • The explicit timeout for each search request. It defaults to no timeout.

  • The type of the search operation. Available options include query_then_fetch and dfs_query_then_fetch.

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • slices number | string

    The number of slices this task should be divided into.

  • sort array[string]

    A comma-separated list of <field>:<direction> pairs.

  • stats array[string]

    The specific tag of the request for logging and statistical purposes.

  • The maximum number of documents to collect for each shard. If a query reaches this limit, Elasticsearch terminates the query early. Elasticsearch collects documents before sorting.

    Use with caution. Elasticsearch applies this parameter to each shard handling the request. When possible, let Elasticsearch perform early termination automatically. Avoid specifying this parameter for requests that target data streams with backing indices across multiple data tiers.

  • timeout string

    The period each deletion request waits for active shards.

  • version boolean

    If true, returns the document version as part of a hit.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. Set to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1). The timeout value controls how long each write request waits for unavailable shards to become available.

  • If true, the request blocks until the operation is complete. If false, Elasticsearch performs some preflight checks, launches the request, and returns a task you can use to cancel or get the status of the task. Elasticsearch creates a record of this task as a document at .tasks/task/${taskId}. When you are done with a task, you should delete the task document so Elasticsearch can reclaim the space.

Get multiple documents Added in 1.3.0

POST /_mget

Get multiple JSON documents by ID from one or more indices. If you specify an index in the request URI, you only need to specify the document IDs in the request body. To ensure fast responses, this multi get (mget) API responds with partial results if one or more shards fail.

Filter source fields

By default, the _source field is returned for every document (if stored). Use the _source and _source_include or source_exclude attributes to filter what fields are returned for a particular document. You can include the _source, _source_includes, and _source_excludes query parameters in the request URI to specify the defaults to use when there are no per-document instructions.

Get stored fields

Use the stored_fields attribute to specify the set of stored fields you want to retrieve. Any requested fields that are not stored are ignored. You can include the stored_fields query parameter in the request URI to specify the defaults to use when there are no per-document instructions.

Query parameters

  • Should this request force synthetic _source? Use this to test if the mapping supports synthetic _source and to get a sense of the worst case performance. Fetches with this enabled will be slower the enabling synthetic source natively in the index.

  • Specifies the node or shard the operation should be performed on. Random by default.

  • realtime boolean

    If true, the request is real-time as opposed to near-real-time.

  • refresh boolean

    If true, the request refreshes relevant shards before retrieving documents.

  • routing string

    Custom value used to route operations to a specific shard.

  • _source boolean | string | array[string]

    True or false to return the _source field or not, or a list of fields to return.

  • _source_excludes string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of source fields to exclude from the response. You can also use this parameter to exclude fields from the subset specified in _source_includes query parameter.

  • _source_includes string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of source fields to include in the response. If this parameter is specified, only these source fields are returned. You can exclude fields from this subset using the _source_excludes query parameter. If the _source parameter is false, this parameter is ignored.

  • stored_fields string | array[string]

    If true, retrieves the document fields stored in the index rather than the document _source.

Get term vector information

POST /{index}/_termvectors

Get information and statistics about terms in the fields of a particular document.

You can retrieve term vectors for documents stored in the index or for artificial documents passed in the body of the request. You can specify the fields you are interested in through the fields parameter or by adding the fields to the request body. For example:

GET /my-index-000001/_termvectors/1?fields=message

Fields can be specified using wildcards, similar to the multi match query.

Term vectors are real-time by default, not near real-time. This can be changed by setting realtime parameter to false.

You can request three types of values: term information, term statistics, and field statistics. By default, all term information and field statistics are returned for all fields but term statistics are excluded.

Term information

  • term frequency in the field (always returned)
  • term positions (positions: true)
  • start and end offsets (offsets: true)
  • term payloads (payloads: true), as base64 encoded bytes

If the requested information wasn't stored in the index, it will be computed on the fly if possible. Additionally, term vectors could be computed for documents not even existing in the index, but instead provided by the user.


Start and end offsets assume UTF-16 encoding is being used. If you want to use these offsets in order to get the original text that produced this token, you should make sure that the string you are taking a sub-string of is also encoded using UTF-16.

Behaviour

The term and field statistics are not accurate. Deleted documents are not taken into account. The information is only retrieved for the shard the requested document resides in. The term and field statistics are therefore only useful as relative measures whereas the absolute numbers have no meaning in this context. By default, when requesting term vectors of artificial documents, a shard to get the statistics from is randomly selected. Use routing only to hit a particular shard.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the index that contains the document.

Query parameters

  • fields string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list or wildcard expressions of fields to include in the statistics. It is used as the default list unless a specific field list is provided in the completion_fields or fielddata_fields parameters.

  • If true, the response includes:

    • The document count (how many documents contain this field).
    • The sum of document frequencies (the sum of document frequencies for all terms in this field).
    • The sum of total term frequencies (the sum of total term frequencies of each term in this field).
  • offsets boolean

    If true, the response includes term offsets.

  • payloads boolean

    If true, the response includes term payloads.

  • positions boolean

    If true, the response includes term positions.

  • The node or shard the operation should be performed on. It is random by default.

  • realtime boolean

    If true, the request is real-time as opposed to near-real-time.

  • routing string

    A custom value that is used to route operations to a specific shard.

  • If true, the response includes:

    • The total term frequency (how often a term occurs in all documents).
    • The document frequency (the number of documents containing the current term).

    By default these values are not returned since term statistics can have a serious performance impact.

  • version number

    If true, returns the document version as part of a hit.

  • The version type.

    Values are internal, external, external_gte, or force.

    • Ignore words which occur in more than this many docs. Defaults to unbounded.

    • The maximum number of terms that must be returned per field.

    • Ignore words with more than this frequency in the source doc. It defaults to unbounded.

    • The maximum word length above which words will be ignored. Defaults to unbounded.

    • Ignore terms which do not occur in at least this many docs.

    • Ignore words with less than this frequency in the source doc.

    • The minimum word length below which words will be ignored.

  • Override the default per-field analyzer. This is useful in order to generate term vectors in any fashion, especially when using artificial documents. When providing an analyzer for a field that already stores term vectors, the term vectors will be regenerated.

Update documents Added in 2.4.0

POST /{index}/_update_by_query

Updates documents that match the specified query. If no query is specified, performs an update on every document in the data stream or index without modifying the source, which is useful for picking up mapping changes.

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the following index privileges for the target data stream, index, or alias:

  • read
  • index or write

You can specify the query criteria in the request URI or the request body using the same syntax as the search API.

When you submit an update by query request, Elasticsearch gets a snapshot of the data stream or index when it begins processing the request and updates matching documents using internal versioning. When the versions match, the document is updated and the version number is incremented. If a document changes between the time that the snapshot is taken and the update operation is processed, it results in a version conflict and the operation fails. You can opt to count version conflicts instead of halting and returning by setting conflicts to proceed. Note that if you opt to count version conflicts, the operation could attempt to update more documents from the source than max_docs until it has successfully updated max_docs documents or it has gone through every document in the source query.

NOTE: Documents with a version equal to 0 cannot be updated using update by query because internal versioning does not support 0 as a valid version number.

While processing an update by query request, Elasticsearch performs multiple search requests sequentially to find all of the matching documents. A bulk update request is performed for each batch of matching documents. Any query or update failures cause the update by query request to fail and the failures are shown in the response. Any update requests that completed successfully still stick, they are not rolled back.

Throttling update requests

To control the rate at which update by query issues batches of update operations, you can set requests_per_second to any positive decimal number. This pads each batch with a wait time to throttle the rate. Set requests_per_second to -1 to turn off throttling.

Throttling uses a wait time between batches so that the internal scroll requests can be given a timeout that takes the request padding into account. The padding time is the difference between the batch size divided by the requests_per_second and the time spent writing. By default the batch size is 1000, so if requests_per_second is set to 500:

target_time = 1000 / 500 per second = 2 seconds
wait_time = target_time - write_time = 2 seconds - .5 seconds = 1.5 seconds

Since the batch is issued as a single _bulk request, large batch sizes cause Elasticsearch to create many requests and wait before starting the next set. This is "bursty" instead of "smooth".

Slicing

Update by query supports sliced scroll to parallelize the update process. This can improve efficiency and provide a convenient way to break the request down into smaller parts.

Setting slices to auto chooses a reasonable number for most data streams and indices. This setting will use one slice per shard, up to a certain limit. If there are multiple source data streams or indices, it will choose the number of slices based on the index or backing index with the smallest number of shards.

Adding slices to _update_by_query just automates the manual process of creating sub-requests, which means it has some quirks:

  • You can see these requests in the tasks APIs. These sub-requests are "child" tasks of the task for the request with slices.
  • Fetching the status of the task for the request with slices only contains the status of completed slices.
  • These sub-requests are individually addressable for things like cancellation and rethrottling.
  • Rethrottling the request with slices will rethrottle the unfinished sub-request proportionally.
  • Canceling the request with slices will cancel each sub-request.
  • Due to the nature of slices each sub-request won't get a perfectly even portion of the documents. All documents will be addressed, but some slices may be larger than others. Expect larger slices to have a more even distribution.
  • Parameters like requests_per_second and max_docs on a request with slices are distributed proportionally to each sub-request. Combine that with the point above about distribution being uneven and you should conclude that using max_docs with slices might not result in exactly max_docs documents being updated.
  • Each sub-request gets a slightly different snapshot of the source data stream or index though these are all taken at approximately the same time.

If you're slicing manually or otherwise tuning automatic slicing, keep in mind that:

  • Query performance is most efficient when the number of slices is equal to the number of shards in the index or backing index. If that number is large (for example, 500), choose a lower number as too many slices hurts performance. Setting slices higher than the number of shards generally does not improve efficiency and adds overhead.
  • Update performance scales linearly across available resources with the number of slices.

Whether query or update performance dominates the runtime depends on the documents being reindexed and cluster resources.

Update the document source

Update by query supports scripts to update the document source. As with the update API, you can set ctx.op to change the operation that is performed.

Set ctx.op = "noop" if your script decides that it doesn't have to make any changes. The update by query operation skips updating the document and increments the noop counter.

Set ctx.op = "delete" if your script decides that the document should be deleted. The update by query operation deletes the document and increments the deleted counter.

Update by query supports only index, noop, and delete. Setting ctx.op to anything else is an error. Setting any other field in ctx is an error. This API enables you to only modify the source of matching documents; you cannot move them.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    A comma-separated list of data streams, indices, and aliases to search. It supports wildcards (*). To search all data streams or indices, omit this parameter or use * or _all.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices. For example, a request targeting foo*,bar* returns an error if an index starts with foo but no index starts with bar.

  • analyzer string

    The analyzer to use for the query string. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • If true, wildcard and prefix queries are analyzed. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • The preferred behavior when update by query hits version conflicts: abort or proceed.

    Values are abort or proceed.

  • The default operator for query string query: AND or OR. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

    Values are and, AND, or, or OR.

  • df string

    The field to use as default where no field prefix is given in the query string. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    The type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. It supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden. Valid values are: all, open, closed, hidden, none.

  • from number

    Skips the specified number of documents.

  • If false, the request returns an error if it targets a missing or closed index.

  • lenient boolean

    If true, format-based query failures (such as providing text to a numeric field) in the query string will be ignored. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.

  • max_docs number

    The maximum number of documents to process. It defaults to all documents. When set to a value less then or equal to scroll_size then a scroll will not be used to retrieve the results for the operation.

  • pipeline string

    The ID of the pipeline to use to preprocess incoming documents. If the index has a default ingest pipeline specified, then setting the value to _none disables the default ingest pipeline for this request. If a final pipeline is configured it will always run, regardless of the value of this parameter.

  • The node or shard the operation should be performed on. It is random by default.

  • q string

    A query in the Lucene query string syntax.

  • refresh boolean

    If true, Elasticsearch refreshes affected shards to make the operation visible to search after the request completes. This is different than the update API's refresh parameter, which causes just the shard that received the request to be refreshed.

  • If true, the request cache is used for this request. It defaults to the index-level setting.

  • The throttle for this request in sub-requests per second.

  • routing string

    A custom value used to route operations to a specific shard.

  • scroll string

    The period to retain the search context for scrolling.

  • The size of the scroll request that powers the operation.

  • An explicit timeout for each search request. By default, there is no timeout.

  • The type of the search operation. Available options include query_then_fetch and dfs_query_then_fetch.

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • slices number | string

    The number of slices this task should be divided into.

  • sort array[string]

    A comma-separated list of : pairs.

  • stats array[string]

    The specific tag of the request for logging and statistical purposes.

  • The maximum number of documents to collect for each shard. If a query reaches this limit, Elasticsearch terminates the query early. Elasticsearch collects documents before sorting.

    IMPORTANT: Use with caution. Elasticsearch applies this parameter to each shard handling the request. When possible, let Elasticsearch perform early termination automatically. Avoid specifying this parameter for requests that target data streams with backing indices across multiple data tiers.

  • timeout string

    The period each update request waits for the following operations: dynamic mapping updates, waiting for active shards. By default, it is one minute. This guarantees Elasticsearch waits for at least the timeout before failing. The actual wait time could be longer, particularly when multiple waits occur.

  • version boolean

    If true, returns the document version as part of a hit.

  • Should the document increment the version number (internal) on hit or not (reindex)

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. Set to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1). The timeout parameter controls how long each write request waits for unavailable shards to become available. Both work exactly the way they work in the bulk API.

  • If true, the request blocks until the operation is complete. If false, Elasticsearch performs some preflight checks, launches the request, and returns a task ID that you can use to cancel or get the status of the task. Elasticsearch creates a record of this task as a document at .tasks/task/${taskId}.

Close an index

POST /{index}/_close

A closed index is blocked for read or write operations and does not allow all operations that opened indices allow. It is not possible to index documents or to search for documents in a closed index. Closed indices do not have to maintain internal data structures for indexing or searching documents, which results in a smaller overhead on the cluster.

When opening or closing an index, the master node is responsible for restarting the index shards to reflect the new state of the index. The shards will then go through the normal recovery process. The data of opened and closed indices is automatically replicated by the cluster to ensure that enough shard copies are safely kept around at all times.

You can open and close multiple indices. An error is thrown if the request explicitly refers to a missing index. This behaviour can be turned off using the ignore_unavailable=true parameter.

By default, you must explicitly name the indices you are opening or closing. To open or close indices with _all, *, or other wildcard expressions, change theaction.destructive_requires_name setting to false. This setting can also be changed with the cluster update settings API.

Closed indices consume a significant amount of disk-space which can cause problems in managed environments. Closing indices can be turned off with the cluster settings API by setting cluster.indices.close.enable to false.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    Comma-separated list or wildcard expression of index names used to limit the request.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden. Valid values are: all, open, closed, hidden, none.

  • If false, the request returns an error if it targets a missing or closed index.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • timeout string

    Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. Set to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1).

Delete indices

DELETE /{index}

Deleting an index deletes its documents, shards, and metadata. It does not delete related Kibana components, such as data views, visualizations, or dashboards.

You cannot delete the current write index of a data stream. To delete the index, you must roll over the data stream so a new write index is created. You can then use the delete index API to delete the previous write index.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    Comma-separated list of indices to delete. You cannot specify index aliases. By default, this parameter does not support wildcards (*) or _all. To use wildcards or _all, set the action.destructive_requires_name cluster setting to false.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden. Valid values are: all, open, closed, hidden, none.

Refresh an index

GET /_refresh

A refresh makes recent operations performed on one or more indices available for search. For data streams, the API runs the refresh operation on the stream’s backing indices.

By default, Elasticsearch periodically refreshes indices every second, but only on indices that have received one search request or more in the last 30 seconds. You can change this default interval with the index.refresh_interval setting.

Refresh requests are synchronous and do not return a response until the refresh operation completes.

Refreshes are resource-intensive. To ensure good cluster performance, it's recommended to wait for Elasticsearch's periodic refresh rather than performing an explicit refresh when possible.

If your application workflow indexes documents and then runs a search to retrieve the indexed document, it's recommended to use the index API's refresh=wait_for query parameter option. This option ensures the indexing operation waits for a periodic refresh before running the search.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden. Valid values are: all, open, closed, hidden, none.

Split an index Added in 6.1.0

PUT /{index}/_split/{target}

Split an index into a new index with more primary shards.

  • Before you can split an index:

  • The index must be read-only.

  • The cluster health status must be green.

You can do make an index read-only with the following request using the add index block API:

PUT /my_source_index/_block/write

The current write index on a data stream cannot be split. In order to split the current write index, the data stream must first be rolled over so that a new write index is created and then the previous write index can be split.

The number of times the index can be split (and the number of shards that each original shard can be split into) is determined by the index.number_of_routing_shards setting. The number of routing shards specifies the hashing space that is used internally to distribute documents across shards with consistent hashing. For instance, a 5 shard index with number_of_routing_shards set to 30 (5 x 2 x 3) could be split by a factor of 2 or 3.

A split operation:

  • Creates a new target index with the same definition as the source index, but with a larger number of primary shards.
  • Hard-links segments from the source index into the target index. If the file system doesn't support hard-linking, all segments are copied into the new index, which is a much more time consuming process.
  • Hashes all documents again, after low level files are created, to delete documents that belong to a different shard.
  • Recovers the target index as though it were a closed index which had just been re-opened.

IMPORTANT: Indices can only be split if they satisfy the following requirements:

  • The target index must not exist.
  • The source index must have fewer primary shards than the target index.
  • The number of primary shards in the target index must be a multiple of the number of primary shards in the source index.
  • The node handling the split process must have sufficient free disk space to accommodate a second copy of the existing index.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Name of the source index to split.

  • target string Required

    Name of the target index to create.

Query parameters

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • timeout string

    Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. Set to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1).

The number of times the index can be split (and the number of shards that each original shard can be split into) is determined by the index.number_of_routing_shards setting. The number of routing shards specifies the hashing space that is used internally to distribute documents across shards with consistent hashing. For instance, a 5 shard index with number_of_routing_shards set to 30 (5 x 2 x 3) could be split by a factor of 2 or 3.

A split operation:

  • Creates a new target index with the same definition as the source index, but with a larger number of primary shards.
  • Hard-links segments from the source index into the target index. If the file system doesn't support hard-linking, all segments are copied into the new index, which is a much more time consuming process.
  • Hashes all documents again, after low level files are created, to delete documents that belong to a different shard.
  • Recovers the target index as though it were a closed index which had just been re-opened.

IMPORTANT: Indices can only be split if they satisfy the following requirements:

  • The target index must not exist.
  • The source index must have fewer primary shards than the target index.
  • The number of primary shards in the target index must be a multiple of the number of primary shards in the source index.
  • The node handling the split process must have sufficient free disk space to accommodate a second copy of the existing index.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Name of the source index to split.

  • target string Required

    Name of the target index to create.

Query parameters

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • timeout string

    Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. Set to all or any positive integer up to the total number of shards in the index (number_of_replicas+1).

Get index statistics Added in 1.3.0

GET /_stats/{metric}

For data streams, the API retrieves statistics for the stream's backing indices.

By default, the returned statistics are index-level with primaries and total aggregations. primaries are the values for only the primary shards. total are the accumulated values for both primary and replica shards.

To get shard-level statistics, set the level parameter to shards.

NOTE: When moving to another node, the shard-level statistics for a shard are cleared. Although the shard is no longer part of the node, that node retains any node-level statistics to which the shard contributed.

Path parameters

  • metric string | array[string] Required

    Limit the information returned the specific metrics.

Query parameters

  • completion_fields string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list or wildcard expressions of fields to include in fielddata and suggest statistics.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden.

  • fielddata_fields string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list or wildcard expressions of fields to include in fielddata statistics.

  • fields string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list or wildcard expressions of fields to include in the statistics.

  • If true, statistics are not collected from closed indices.

  • groups string | array[string]

    Comma-separated list of search groups to include in the search statistics.

  • If true, the call reports the aggregated disk usage of each one of the Lucene index files (only applies if segment stats are requested).

  • If true, the response includes information from segments that are not loaded into memory.

  • level string

    Indicates whether statistics are aggregated at the cluster, index, or shard level.

    Values are cluster, indices, or shards.

Send monitoring data Added in 6.3.0

POST /_monitoring/{type}/bulk

This API is used by the monitoring features to send monitoring data.

Path parameters

  • type string Required Deprecated

    Default document type for items which don't provide one

Query parameters

application/json

Body object Required

One of:
  • index object
    Hide index attributes Show index attributes object
    • _id string
    • _index string
    • routing string
    • version number
    • Values are internal, external, external_gte, or force.

    • A map from the full name of fields to the name of dynamic templates. It defaults to an empty map. If a name matches a dynamic template, that template will be applied regardless of other match predicates defined in the template. If a field is already defined in the mapping, then this parameter won't be used.

      Hide dynamic_templates attribute Show dynamic_templates attribute object
      • * string Additional properties
    • pipeline string

      The ID of the pipeline to use to preprocess incoming documents. If the index has a default ingest pipeline specified, setting the value to _none turns off the default ingest pipeline for this request. If a final pipeline is configured, it will always run regardless of the value of this parameter.

    • If true, the request's actions must target an index alias.

  • create object
    Hide create attributes Show create attributes object
    • _id string

Create or update a query rule Added in 8.15.0

PUT /_query_rules/{ruleset_id}/_rule/{rule_id}

Create or update a query rule within a query ruleset.

IMPORTANT: Due to limitations within pinned queries, you can only pin documents using ids or docs, but cannot use both in single rule. It is advised to use one or the other in query rulesets, to avoid errors. Additionally, pinned queries have a maximum limit of 100 pinned hits. If multiple matching rules pin more than 100 documents, only the first 100 documents are pinned in the order they are specified in the ruleset.

Path parameters

  • ruleset_id string Required

    The unique identifier of the query ruleset containing the rule to be created or updated.

  • rule_id string Required

    The unique identifier of the query rule within the specified ruleset to be created or updated.

Close a point in time Added in 7.10.0

DELETE /_pit

A point in time must be opened explicitly before being used in search requests. The keep_alive parameter tells Elasticsearch how long it should persist. A point in time is automatically closed when the keep_alive period has elapsed. However, keeping points in time has a cost; close them as soon as they are no longer required for search requests.

Get the field capabilities Added in 5.4.0

GET /_field_caps

Get information about the capabilities of fields among multiple indices.

For data streams, the API returns field capabilities among the stream’s backing indices. It returns runtime fields like any other field. For example, a runtime field with a type of keyword is returned the same as any other field that belongs to the keyword family.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices. For example, a request targeting foo*,bar* returns an error if an index starts with foo but no index starts with bar.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    The type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden.

  • fields string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of fields to retrieve capabilities for. Wildcard (*) expressions are supported.

  • If true, missing or closed indices are not included in the response.

  • If true, unmapped fields are included in the response.

  • filters string

    A comma-separated list of filters to apply to the response.

  • types array[string]

    A comma-separated list of field types to include. Any fields that do not match one of these types will be excluded from the results. It defaults to empty, meaning that all field types are returned.

  • If false, empty fields are not included in the response.

Run a knn search Deprecated Technical preview

GET /{index}/_knn_search

NOTE: The kNN search API has been replaced by the knn option in the search API.

Perform a k-nearest neighbor (kNN) search on a dense_vector field and return the matching documents. Given a query vector, the API finds the k closest vectors and returns those documents as search hits.

Elasticsearch uses the HNSW algorithm to support efficient kNN search. Like most kNN algorithms, HNSW is an approximate method that sacrifices result accuracy for improved search speed. This means the results returned are not always the true k closest neighbors.

The kNN search API supports restricting the search using a filter. The search will return the top k documents that also match the filter query.

A kNN search response has the exact same structure as a search API response. However, certain sections have a meaning specific to kNN search:

  • The document _score is determined by the similarity between the query and document vector.
  • The hits.total object contains the total number of nearest neighbor candidates considered, which is num_candidates * num_shards. The hits.total.relation will always be eq, indicating an exact value.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    A comma-separated list of index names to search; use _all or to perform the operation on all indices.

Query parameters

  • routing string

    A comma-separated list of specific routing values.

application/json

Body

  • _source boolean | object

    Defines how to fetch a source. Fetching can be disabled entirely, or the source can be filtered.

    One of:
  • docvalue_fields array[object]

    The request returns doc values for field names matching these patterns in the hits.fields property of the response. It accepts wildcard (*) patterns.

    Hide docvalue_fields attributes Show docvalue_fields attributes object
    • field string Required

      Path to field or array of paths. Some API's support wildcards in the path to select multiple fields.

    • format string

      The format in which the values are returned.

  • stored_fields string | array[string]
  • fields string | array[string]
  • filter object | array[object]

    A query to filter the documents that can match. The kNN search will return the top k documents that also match this filter. The value can be a single query or a list of queries. If filter isn't provided, all documents are allowed to match.

    One of:

Run multiple searches Added in 1.3.0

POST /_msearch

The format of the request is similar to the bulk API format and makes use of the newline delimited JSON (NDJSON) format. The structure is as follows:

header\n
body\n
header\n
body\n

This structure is specifically optimized to reduce parsing if a specific search ends up redirected to another node.

IMPORTANT: The final line of data must end with a newline character \n. Each newline character may be preceded by a carriage return \r. When sending requests to this endpoint the Content-Type header should be set to application/x-ndjson.

Query parameters

  • If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices. For example, a request targeting foo*,bar* returns an error if an index starts with foo but no index starts with bar.

  • If true, network roundtrips between the coordinating node and remote clusters are minimized for cross-cluster search requests.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard expressions can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams.

  • If true, concrete, expanded or aliased indices are ignored when frozen.

  • If true, missing or closed indices are not included in the response.

  • Indicates whether hit.matched_queries should be rendered as a map that includes the name of the matched query associated with its score (true) or as an array containing the name of the matched queries (false) This functionality reruns each named query on every hit in a search response. Typically, this adds a small overhead to a request. However, using computationally expensive named queries on a large number of hits may add significant overhead.

  • Maximum number of concurrent searches the multi search API can execute.

  • Maximum number of concurrent shard requests that each sub-search request executes per node.

  • Defines a threshold that enforces a pre-filter roundtrip to prefilter search shards based on query rewriting if the number of shards the search request expands to exceeds the threshold. This filter roundtrip can limit the number of shards significantly if for instance a shard can not match any documents based on its rewrite method i.e., if date filters are mandatory to match but the shard bounds and the query are disjoint.

  • If true, hits.total are returned as an integer in the response. Defaults to false, which returns an object.

  • routing string

    Custom routing value used to route search operations to a specific shard.

  • Indicates whether global term and document frequencies should be used when scoring returned documents.

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • typed_keys boolean

    Specifies whether aggregation and suggester names should be prefixed by their respective types in the response.

Run multiple templated searches Added in 5.0.0

POST /_msearch/template

Run multiple templated searches with a single request. If you are providing a text file or text input to curl, use the --data-binary flag instead of -d to preserve newlines. For example:

$ cat requests
{ "index": "my-index" }
{ "id": "my-search-template", "params": { "query_string": "hello world", "from": 0, "size": 10 }}
{ "index": "my-other-index" }
{ "id": "my-other-search-template", "params": { "query_type": "match_all" }}

$ curl -H "Content-Type: application/x-ndjson" -XGET localhost:9200/_msearch/template --data-binary "@requests"; echo

Query parameters

  • If true, network round-trips are minimized for cross-cluster search requests.

  • The maximum number of concurrent searches the API can run.

  • The type of the search operation.

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • If true, the response returns hits.total as an integer. If false, it returns hits.total as an object.

  • typed_keys boolean

    If true, the response prefixes aggregation and suggester names with their respective types.
