Get the async search status Added in 7.11.0

GET /_async_search/status/{id}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Get the status of a previously submitted async search request given its identifier, without retrieving search results. If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, the access to the status of a specific async search is restricted to:

  • The user or API key that submitted the original async search request.
  • Users that have the monitor cluster privilege or greater privileges.

Path parameters

  • id string Required

    A unique identifier for the async search.

Query parameters

  • keep_alive string

    The length of time that the async search needs to be available. Ongoing async searches and any saved search results are deleted after this period.

    Values are -1 or 0.

    • id string
    • is_partial boolean Required

      When the query is no longer running, this property indicates whether the search failed or was successfully completed on all shards. While the query is running, is_partial is always set to true.

    • is_running boolean Required

      Indicates whether the search is still running or has completed.


      If the search failed after some shards returned their results or the node that is coordinating the async search dies, results may be partial even though is_running is false.

    • expiration_time string | number

      A date and time, either as a string whose format can depend on the context (defaulting to ISO 8601), or a number of milliseconds since the Epoch. Elasticsearch accepts both as input, but will generally output a string representation.

      One of:
      DateTime string UnitMillis number

      Time unit for milliseconds

    • Time unit for milliseconds

    • start_time string | number

      A date and time, either as a string whose format can depend on the context (defaulting to ISO 8601), or a number of milliseconds since the Epoch. Elasticsearch accepts both as input, but will generally output a string representation.

      One of:
      DateTime string UnitMillis number

      Time unit for milliseconds

    • Time unit for milliseconds

    • completion_time string | number

      A date and time, either as a string whose format can depend on the context (defaulting to ISO 8601), or a number of milliseconds since the Epoch. Elasticsearch accepts both as input, but will generally output a string representation.

    • _shards object Required
      Hide _shards attributes Show _shards attributes object
    • _clusters object
      Hide _clusters attributes Show _clusters attributes object
    • completion_status number

      If the async search completed, this field shows the status code of the search. For example, 200 indicates that the async search was successfully completed. 503 indicates that the async search was completed with an error.
