Query parameters

• allow_no_indices boolean

  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.

• ccs_minimize_roundtrips boolean

  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.

• ignore_throttled boolean

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

• ignore_unavailable boolean

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

• max_concurrent_searches number

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

• max_concurrent_shard_requests number

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

• pre_filter_shard_size number

  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.

• search_type string

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

  Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

• rest_total_hits_as_int boolean

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

• typed_keys boolean

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

• wait_for_checkpoints array[number]

  A comma separated list of checkpoints. When configured, the search API will only be executed on a shard after the relevant checkpoint has become visible for search. Defaults to an empty list which will cause Elasticsearch to immediately execute the search.

• allow_partial_search_results boolean

  If true, returns partial results if there are shard request timeouts or shard failures. If false, returns an error with no partial results. Defaults to the configured cluster setting search.default_allow_partial_results which is true by default.
