Check the API Conventions and the elasticsearch docs for more information pertaining to this method.

Create a document.

await client.create({
  index: 'myindex',
  type: 'mytype',
  id: '1',
  body: {
    title: 'Test 1',
    tags: ['y', 'z'],
    published: true,
    published_at: '2013-01-01',
    counter: 1
  }
});
