Authentication

The API accepts 3 different authentication methods:

Api key auth (http_api_key)

Elasticsearch APIs support key-based authentication. You must create an API key and use the encoded value in the request header. For example:

curl -X GET "${ES_URL}/_cat/indices?v=true" \
  -H "Authorization: ApiKey ${API_KEY}"

To get API keys, use the /_security/api_key APIs.

Basic auth (http)

Basic auth tokens are constructed with the Basic keyword, followed by a space, followed by a base64-encoded string of your username:password (separated by a : colon).

Example: send a Authorization: Basic aGVsbG86aGVsbG8= HTTP header with your requests to authenticate with the API.

Bearer auth (http)

Elasticsearch APIs support the use of bearer tokens in the Authorization HTTP header to authenticate with the API. For examples, refer to Token-based authentication services

Get the autoscaling capacity Added in 7.11.0

GET /_autoscaling/capacity

NOTE: This feature is designed for indirect use by Elasticsearch Service, Elastic Cloud Enterprise, and Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes. Direct use is not supported.

This API gets the current autoscaling capacity based on the configured autoscaling policy. It will return information to size the cluster appropriately to the current workload.

The required_capacity is calculated as the maximum of the required_capacity result of all individual deciders that are enabled for the policy.

The operator should verify that the current_nodes match the operator’s knowledge of the cluster to avoid making autoscaling decisions based on stale or incomplete information.

The response contains decider-specific information you can use to diagnose how and why autoscaling determined a certain capacity was required. This information is provided for diagnosis only. Do not use this information to make autoscaling decisions.

Get the cluster health status

GET /_cat/health

IMPORTANT: CAT APIs are only intended for human consumption using the command line or Kibana console. They are not intended for use by applications. For application consumption, use the cluster health API. This API is often used to check malfunctioning clusters. To help you track cluster health alongside log files and alerting systems, the API returns timestamps in two formats: HH:MM:SS, which is human-readable but includes no date information; Unix epoch time, which is machine-sortable and includes date information. The latter format is useful for cluster recoveries that take multiple days. You can use the cat health API to verify cluster health across multiple nodes. You also can use the API to track the recovery of a large cluster over a longer period of time.

Query parameters

  • time string

    The unit used to display time values.

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

  • ts boolean

    If true, returns HH:MM:SS and Unix epoch timestamps.

  • h string | array[string]

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

  • s string | array[string]

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:

  • shard count
  • document count
  • deleted document count
  • primary store size
  • total store size of all shards, including shard replicas

These metrics are retrieved directly from Lucene, which Elasticsearch uses internally to power indexing and search. As a result, all document counts include hidden nested documents. To get an accurate count of Elasticsearch documents, use the cat count or count APIs.

CAT APIs are only intended for human consumption using the command line or Kibana console. They are not intended for use by applications. For application consumption, use an index endpoint.

Query parameters

  • bytes string

    The unit used to display byte values.

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

Get transform information Added in 7.7.0

GET /_cat/transforms/{transform_id}

Get configuration and usage information about transforms.

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 transform statistics API.

Path parameters

  • transform_id string Required

    A transform identifier or a wildcard expression. If you do not specify one of these options, the API returns information for all transforms.

Query parameters

  • Specifies what to do when the request: contains wildcard expressions and there are no transforms 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, it returns an empty transforms array when there are no matches and the subset of results when there are partial matches. If false, the request returns a 404 status code when there are no matches or only partial matches.

  • from number

    Skips the specified number of transforms.

  • h string | array[string]

Explain the shard allocations Added in 5.0.0

POST /_cluster/allocation/explain

Get explanations for shard allocations in the cluster. For unassigned shards, it provides an explanation for why the shard is unassigned. For assigned shards, it provides an explanation for why the shard is remaining on its current node and has not moved or rebalanced to another node. This API can be very useful when attempting to diagnose why a shard is unassigned or why a shard continues to remain on its current node when you might expect otherwise.

Query parameters

application/json

Body

  • Specifies the node ID or the name of the node to only explain a shard that is currently located on the specified node.

  • index string
  • primary boolean

    If true, returns explanation for the primary shard for the given shard ID.

  • shard number

    Specifies the ID of the shard that you would like an explanation for.

Update voting configuration exclusions Added in 7.0.0

POST /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions

Update the cluster voting config exclusions by node IDs or node names. By default, if there are more than three master-eligible nodes in the cluster and you remove fewer than half of the master-eligible nodes in the cluster at once, the voting configuration automatically shrinks. If you want to shrink the voting configuration to contain fewer than three nodes or to remove half or more of the master-eligible nodes in the cluster at once, use this API to remove departing nodes from the voting configuration manually. The API adds an entry for each specified node to the cluster’s voting configuration exclusions list. It then waits until the cluster has reconfigured its voting configuration to exclude the specified nodes.

Clusters should have no voting configuration exclusions in normal operation. Once the excluded nodes have stopped, clear the voting configuration exclusions with DELETE /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions. This API waits for the nodes to be fully removed from the cluster before it returns. If your cluster has voting configuration exclusions for nodes that you no longer intend to remove, use DELETE /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions?wait_for_removal=false to clear the voting configuration exclusions without waiting for the nodes to leave the cluster.

A response to POST /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions with an HTTP status code of 200 OK guarantees that the node has been removed from the voting configuration and will not be reinstated until the voting configuration exclusions are cleared by calling DELETE /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions. If the call to POST /_cluster/voting_config_exclusions fails or returns a response with an HTTP status code other than 200 OK then the node may not have been removed from the voting configuration. In that case, you may safely retry the call.

NOTE: Voting exclusions are required only when you remove at least half of the master-eligible nodes from a cluster in a short time period. They are not required when removing master-ineligible nodes or when removing fewer than half of the master-eligible nodes.

External documentation

Query parameters

  • node_names string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of the names of the nodes to exclude from the voting configuration. If specified, you may not also specify node_ids.

  • node_ids string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of the persistent ids of the nodes to exclude from the voting configuration. If specified, you may not also specify node_names.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

    When adding a voting configuration exclusion, the API waits for the specified nodes to be excluded from the voting configuration before returning. If the timeout expires before the appropriate condition is satisfied, the request fails and returns an error.

    Values are -1 or 0.

Get remote cluster information Added in 6.1.0

GET /_remote/info

Get information about configured remote clusters. The API returns connection and endpoint information keyed by the configured remote cluster alias.


This API returns information that reflects current state on the local cluster. The connected field does not necessarily reflect whether a remote cluster is down or unavailable, only whether there is currently an open connection to it. Elasticsearch does not spontaneously try to reconnect to a disconnected remote cluster. To trigger a reconnection, attempt a cross-cluster search, ES|QL cross-cluster search, or try the resolve cluster endpoint.

Reroute the cluster Added in 5.0.0

POST /_cluster/reroute

Manually change the allocation of individual shards in the cluster. For example, a shard can be moved from one node to another explicitly, an allocation can be canceled, and an unassigned shard can be explicitly allocated to a specific node.

It is important to note that after processing any reroute commands Elasticsearch will perform rebalancing as normal (respecting the values of settings such as cluster.routing.rebalance.enable) in order to remain in a balanced state. For example, if the requested allocation includes moving a shard from node1 to node2 then this may cause a shard to be moved from node2 back to node1 to even things out.

The cluster can be set to disable allocations using the cluster.routing.allocation.enable setting. If allocations are disabled then the only allocations that will be performed are explicit ones given using the reroute command, and consequent allocations due to rebalancing.

The cluster will attempt to allocate a shard a maximum of index.allocation.max_retries times in a row (defaults to 5), before giving up and leaving the shard unallocated. This scenario can be caused by structural problems such as having an analyzer which refers to a stopwords file which doesn’t exist on all nodes.

Once the problem has been corrected, allocation can be manually retried by calling the reroute API with the ?retry_failed URI query parameter, which will attempt a single retry round for these shards.

Query parameters

  • dry_run boolean

    If true, then the request simulates the operation. It will calculate the result of applying the commands to the current cluster state and return the resulting cluster state after the commands (and rebalancing) have been applied; it will not actually perform the requested changes.

  • explain boolean

    If true, then the response contains an explanation of why the commands can or cannot run.

  • metric string | array[string]

    Limits the information returned to the specified metrics.

  • If true, then retries allocation of shards that are blocked due to too many subsequent allocation failures.

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

Get the cluster state Added in 1.3.0

GET /_cluster/state/{metric}/{index}

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.

Reload the keystore on nodes in the cluster Added in 6.5.0

POST /_nodes/{node_id}/reload_secure_settings

Secure settings are stored in an on-disk keystore. Certain of these settings are reloadable. That is, you can change them on disk and reload them without restarting any nodes in the cluster. When you have updated reloadable secure settings in your keystore, you can use this API to reload those settings on each node.

When the Elasticsearch keystore is password protected and not simply obfuscated, you must provide the password for the keystore when you reload the secure settings. Reloading the settings for the whole cluster assumes that the keystores for all nodes are protected with the same password; this method is allowed only when inter-node communications are encrypted. Alternatively, you can reload the secure settings on each node by locally accessing the API and passing the node-specific Elasticsearch keystore password.

Path parameters

  • node_id string | array[string] Required

    The names of particular nodes in the cluster to target.

Query parameters

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

Get the cluster health Added in 8.7.0

GET /_health_report/{feature}

Get a report with the health status of an Elasticsearch cluster. The report contains a list of indicators that compose Elasticsearch functionality.

Each indicator has a health status of: green, unknown, yellow or red. The indicator will provide an explanation and metadata describing the reason for its current health status.

The cluster’s status is controlled by the worst indicator status.

In the event that an indicator’s status is non-green, a list of impacts may be present in the indicator result which detail the functionalities that are negatively affected by the health issue. Each impact carries with it a severity level, an area of the system that is affected, and a simple description of the impact on the system.

Some health indicators can determine the root cause of a health problem and prescribe a set of steps that can be performed in order to improve the health of the system. The root cause and remediation steps are encapsulated in a diagnosis. A diagnosis contains a cause detailing a root cause analysis, an action containing a brief description of the steps to take to fix the problem, the list of affected resources (if applicable), and a detailed step-by-step troubleshooting guide to fix the diagnosed problem.

NOTE: The health indicators perform root cause analysis of non-green health statuses. This can be computationally expensive when called frequently. When setting up automated polling of the API for health status, set verbose to false to disable the more expensive analysis logic.

Path parameters

  • feature string | array[string] Required

    A feature of the cluster, as returned by the top-level health report API.

Query parameters

  • timeout string

    Explicit operation timeout.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • verbose boolean

    Opt-in for more information about the health of the system.

  • size number

    Limit the number of affected resources the health report API returns.

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 that bring content from third-party data sources, which can be deployed on Elastic Cloud or hosted on your own infrastructure:

  • Elastic managed connectors (Native connectors) are a managed service on Elastic Cloud
  • Self-managed connectors (Connector clients) are self-managed on your 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.

Claim a connector sync job Technical preview

PUT /_connector/_sync_job/{connector_sync_job_id}/_claim

This action updates the job status to in_progress and sets the last_seen and started_at timestamps to the current time. Additionally, it can set the sync_cursor property for the sync job.

This API is not intended for direct connector management by users. It supports the implementation of services that utilize the connector protocol to communicate with Elasticsearch.

To sync data using self-managed connectors, you need to deploy the Elastic connector service on your own infrastructure. This service runs automatically on Elastic Cloud for Elastic managed connectors.

Path parameters

Create or update auto-follow patterns Added in 6.5.0

PUT /_ccr/auto_follow/{name}

Create a collection of cross-cluster replication auto-follow patterns for a remote cluster. Newly created indices on the remote cluster that match any of the patterns are automatically configured as follower indices. Indices on the remote cluster that were created before the auto-follow pattern was created will not be auto-followed even if they match the pattern.

This API can also be used to update auto-follow patterns. NOTE: Follower indices that were configured automatically before updating an auto-follow pattern will remain unchanged even if they do not match against the new patterns.

Forget a follower Added in 6.7.0

POST /{index}/_ccr/forget_follower

Remove the cross-cluster replication follower retention leases from the leader.

A following index takes out retention leases on its leader index. These leases are used to increase the likelihood that the shards of the leader index retain the history of operations that the shards of the following index need to run replication. When a follower index is converted to a regular index by the unfollow API (either by directly calling the API or by index lifecycle management tasks), these leases are removed. However, removal of the leases can fail, for example when the remote cluster containing the leader index is unavailable. While the leases will eventually expire on their own, their extended existence can cause the leader index to hold more history than necessary and prevent index lifecycle management from performing some operations on the leader index. This API exists to enable manually removing the leases when the unfollow API is unable to do so.

NOTE: This API does not stop replication by a following index. If you use this API with a follower index that is still actively following, the following index will add back retention leases on the leader. The only purpose of this API is to handle the case of failure to remove the following retention leases after the unfollow API is invoked.

External documentation

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    the name of the leader index for which specified follower retention leases should be removed

Query parameters

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

Pause an auto-follow pattern Added in 7.5.0

POST /_ccr/auto_follow/{name}/pause

Pause a cross-cluster replication auto-follow pattern. When the API returns, the auto-follow pattern is inactive. New indices that are created on the remote cluster and match the auto-follow patterns are ignored.

You can resume auto-following with the resume auto-follow pattern API. When it resumes, the auto-follow pattern is active again and automatically configures follower indices for newly created indices on the remote cluster that match its patterns. Remote indices that were created while the pattern was paused will also be followed, unless they have been deleted or closed in the interim.

Convert an index alias to a data stream Added in 7.9.0

POST /_data_stream/_migrate/{name}

Converts an index alias to a data stream. You must have a matching index template that is data stream enabled. The alias must meet the following criteria: The alias must have a write index; All indices for the alias must have a @timestamp field mapping of a date or date_nanos field type; The alias must not have any filters; The alias must not use custom routing. If successful, the request removes the alias and creates a data stream with the same name. The indices for the alias become hidden backing indices for the stream. The write index for the alias becomes the write index for the stream.

Path parameters

  • name string Required

    Name of the index alias to convert to a data stream.

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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

Bulk index or delete documents

PUT /_bulk

Perform multiple index, create, delete, and update actions in a single request. This reduces overhead and can greatly increase indexing speed.

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

  • To use the create action, you must have the create_doc, create, index, or write index privilege. Data streams support only the create action.
  • To use the index action, you must have the create, index, or write index privilege.
  • To use the delete action, you must have the delete or write index privilege.
  • To use the update action, you must have the index or write index privilege.
  • To automatically create a data stream or index with a bulk API request, you must have the auto_configure, create_index, or manage index privilege.
  • To make the result of a bulk operation visible to search using the refresh parameter, you must have the maintenance or manage index privilege.

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

The actions are specified in the request body using a newline delimited JSON (NDJSON) structure:

action_and_meta_data\n
optional_source\n
action_and_meta_data\n
optional_source\n
....
action_and_meta_data\n
optional_source\n

The index and create actions expect a source on the next line and have the same semantics as the op_type parameter in the standard index API. A create action fails if a document with the same ID already exists in the target An index action adds or replaces a document as necessary.

NOTE: Data streams support only the create action. To update or delete a document in a data stream, you must target the backing index containing the document.

An update action expects that the partial doc, upsert, and script and its options are specified on the next line.

A delete action does not expect a source on the next line and has the same semantics as the standard delete API.

NOTE: 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 NDJSON data to the _bulk endpoint, use a Content-Type header of application/json or application/x-ndjson. Because this format uses literal newline characters (\n) as delimiters, make sure that the JSON actions and sources are not pretty printed.

If you provide a target in the request path, it is used for any actions that don't explicitly specify an _index argument.

A note on the format: the idea here is to make processing as fast as possible. As some of the actions are redirected to other shards on other nodes, only action_meta_data is parsed on the receiving node side.

Client libraries using this protocol should try and strive to do something similar on the client side, and reduce buffering as much as possible.

There is no "correct" number of actions to perform in a single bulk request. Experiment with different settings to find the optimal size for your particular workload. Note that Elasticsearch limits the maximum size of a HTTP request to 100mb by default so clients must ensure that no request exceeds this size. It is not possible to index a single document that exceeds the size limit, so you must pre-process any such documents into smaller pieces before sending them to Elasticsearch. For instance, split documents into pages or chapters before indexing them, or store raw binary data in a system outside Elasticsearch and replace the raw data with a link to the external system in the documents that you send to Elasticsearch.

Client suppport for bulk requests

Some of the officially supported clients provide helpers to assist with bulk requests and reindexing:

  • Go: Check out esutil.BulkIndexer
  • Perl: Check out Search::Elasticsearch::Client::5_0::Bulk and Search::Elasticsearch::Client::5_0::Scroll
  • Python: Check out elasticsearch.helpers.*
  • JavaScript: Check out client.helpers.*
  • .NET: Check out BulkAllObservable
  • PHP: Check out bulk indexing.

Submitting bulk requests with cURL

If you're providing text file input to curl, you must use the --data-binary flag instead of plain -d. The latter doesn't preserve newlines. For example:

$ cat requests
{ "index" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "field1" : "value1" }
$ curl -s -H "Content-Type: application/x-ndjson" -XPOST localhost:9200/_bulk --data-binary "@requests"; echo
{"took":7, "errors": false, "items":[{"index":{"_index":"test","_id":"1","_version":1,"result":"created","forced_refresh":false}}]}

Optimistic concurrency control

Each index and delete action within a bulk API call may include the if_seq_no and if_primary_term parameters in their respective action and meta data lines. The if_seq_no and if_primary_term parameters control how operations are run, based on the last modification to existing documents. See Optimistic concurrency control for more details.

Versioning

Each bulk item can include the version value using the version field. It automatically follows the behavior of the index or delete operation based on the _version mapping. It also support the version_type.

Routing

Each bulk item can include the routing value using the routing field. It automatically follows the behavior of the index or delete operation based on the _routing mapping.

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

Wait for active shards

When making bulk calls, you can set the wait_for_active_shards parameter to require a minimum number of shard copies to be active before starting to process the bulk request.

Refresh

Control when the changes made by this request are visible to search.

NOTE: Only the shards that receive the bulk request will be affected by refresh. Imagine a _bulk?refresh=wait_for request with three documents in it that happen to be routed to different shards in an index with five shards. The request will only wait for those three shards to refresh. The other two shards that make up the index do not participate in the _bulk request at all.

Query parameters

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

  • If true, the response will include the ingest pipelines that were run for each index or create.

  • pipeline string

    The pipeline identifier 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.

  • refresh string

    If true, Elasticsearch refreshes the affected shards to make this operation visible to search. If wait_for, wait for a refresh to make this operation visible to search. If false, do nothing with refreshes. Valid values: true, false, wait_for.

    Values are true, false, or wait_for.

  • routing string

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

  • _source boolean | string | array[string]

    Indicates whether to return the _source field (true or false) or contains 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. If the _source parameter is false, this parameter is ignored.

  • _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.

  • timeout string

    The period each action waits for the following operations: automatic index creation, dynamic mapping updates, and waiting for active shards. The default is 1m (one minute), which guarantees Elasticsearch waits for at least the timeout before failing. The actual wait time could be longer, particularly when multiple waits occur.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • 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 default is 1, which waits for each primary shard to be active.

    Values are all or index-setting.

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

  • If true, the request's actions must target a data stream (existing or to be created).

When you run `POST _bulk` and use the `update` action, you can use `retry_on_conflict` as a field in the action itself (not in the extra payload line) to specify how many times an update should be retried in the case of a version conflict.
{ "update" : {"_id" : "1", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }

Run `POST /_bulk` to perform a bulk request that consists of index and create actions with the `dynamic_templates` parameter. The bulk request creates two new fields `work_location` and `home_location` with type `geo_point` according to the `dynamic_templates` parameter. However, the `raw_location` field is created using default dynamic mapping rules, as a text field in that case since it is supplied as a string in the JSON document.

If you run `POST /_bulk` with operations that update non-existent documents, the operations cannot complete successfully. The API returns a response with an `errors` property value `true`. The response also includes an error object for any failed operations. The error object contains additional information about the failure, such as the error type and reason.

Create a new document in the index Added in 5.0.0

PUT /{index}/_create/{id}

You can index a new JSON document with the /<target>/_doc/ or /<target>/_create/<_id> APIs Using _create guarantees that the document is indexed only if it does not already exist. It returns a 409 response when a document with a same ID already exists in the index. To update an existing document, you must use the /<target>/_doc/ API.

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 a document using the PUT /<target>/_create/<_id> or POST /<target>/_create/<_id> request formats, 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.

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.

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.

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.

  • id string Required

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

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.

    Supported values include:

    • index: Overwrite any documents that already exist.
    • create: Only index documents that do not already exist.

    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, 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.

  • 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.

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

  • If true, the request's actions must target a data stream (existing or to be created).

  • 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. Elasticsearch waits for at least the specified timeout period before failing. The actual wait time could be longer, particularly when multiple waits occur.

    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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • version number

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

  • The version type.

    Supported values include:

    • internal: Use internal versioning that starts at 1 and increments with each update or delete.
    • external: Only index the document if the specified version is strictly higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document.
    • external_gte: Only index the document if the specified version is equal or higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document. NOTE: The external_gte version type is meant for special use cases and should be used with care. If used incorrectly, it can result in loss of data.
    • force: This option is deprecated because it can cause primary and replica shards to diverge.

    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.

    Values are all or index-setting.

Get a document by its ID

GET /{index}/_doc/{id}

Get a document and its source or stored fields from an index.

By default, this API is realtime and is not affected by the refresh rate of the index (when data will become visible for search). In the case where stored fields are requested with the stored_fields parameter and the document has been updated but is not yet refreshed, the API will have to parse and analyze the source to extract the stored fields. To turn off realtime behavior, set the realtime parameter to false.

Source filtering

By default, the API returns the contents of the _source field unless you have used the stored_fields parameter or the _source field is turned off. You can turn off _source retrieval by using the _source parameter:

GET my-index-000001/_doc/0?_source=false

If you only need one or two fields from the _source, use the _source_includes or _source_excludes parameters to include or filter out particular fields. This can be helpful with large documents where partial retrieval can save on network overhead Both parameters take a comma separated list of fields or wildcard expressions. For example:

GET my-index-000001/_doc/0?_source_includes=*.id&_source_excludes=entities

If you only want to specify includes, you can use a shorter notation:

GET my-index-000001/_doc/0?_source=*.id

Routing

If routing is used during indexing, the routing value also needs to be specified to retrieve a document. For example:

GET my-index-000001/_doc/2?routing=user1

This request gets the document with ID 2, but it is routed based on the user. The document is not fetched if the correct routing is not specified.

Distributed

The GET operation is hashed into a specific shard ID. It is then redirected to one of the replicas within that shard ID and returns the result. The replicas are the primary shard and its replicas within that shard ID group. This means that the more replicas you have, the better your GET scaling will be.

Versioning support

You can use the version parameter to retrieve the document only if its current version is equal to the specified one.

Internally, Elasticsearch has marked the old document as deleted and added an entirely new document. The old version of the document doesn't disappear immediately, although you won't be able to access it. Elasticsearch cleans up deleted documents in the background as you continue to index more data.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the index that contains the document.

  • id string Required

    A unique document identifier.

Query parameters

  • The node or shard the operation should be performed on. By default, the operation is randomized between the shard replicas.

    If it is set to _local, the operation will prefer to be run on a local allocated shard when possible. If it is set to a custom value, the value is used to guarantee that the same shards will be used for the same custom value. This can help with "jumping values" when hitting different shards in different refresh states. A sample value can be something like the web session ID or the user name.

  • realtime boolean

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

  • refresh boolean

    If true, the request refreshes the relevant shards before retrieving the document. Setting it to true should be done after careful thought and verification that this does not cause a heavy load on the system (and slow down indexing).

  • routing string

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

  • _source boolean | string | array[string]

    Indicates whether to return the _source field (true or false) or lists the 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. If the _source parameter is false, this parameter is ignored.

  • _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]

    A comma-separated list of stored fields to return as part of a hit. If no fields are specified, no stored fields are included in the response. If this field is specified, the _source parameter defaults to false. Only leaf fields can be retrieved with the stored_field option. Object fields can't be returned;​if specified, the request fails.

  • version number

    The version number for concurrency control. It must match the current version of the document for the request to succeed.

  • The version type.

    Supported values include:

    • internal: Use internal versioning that starts at 1 and increments with each update or delete.
    • external: Only index the document if the specified version is strictly higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document.
    • external_gte: Only index the document if the specified version is equal or higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document. NOTE: The external_gte version type is meant for special use cases and should be used with care. If used incorrectly, it can result in loss of data.
    • force: This option is deprecated because it can cause primary and replica shards to diverge.

    Values are internal, external, external_gte, or force.

Create or update a document in an index

POST /{index}/_doc

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.

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.

    Supported values include:

    • index: Overwrite any documents that already exist.
    • create: Only index documents that do not already exist.

    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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • version number

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

  • The version type.

    Supported values include:

    • internal: Use internal versioning that starts at 1 and increments with each update or delete.
    • external: Only index the document if the specified version is strictly higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document.
    • external_gte: Only index the document if the specified version is equal or higher than the version of the stored document or if there is no existing document. NOTE: The external_gte version type is meant for special use cases and should be used with care. If used incorrectly, it can result in loss of data.
    • force: This option is deprecated because it can cause primary and replica shards to diverge.

    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.

    Values are all or index-setting.

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

Get multiple documents Added in 1.3.0

GET /_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

  • 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]

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

  • 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]

Reindex documents Added in 2.3.0

POST /_reindex

Copy documents from a source to a destination. You can copy all documents to the destination index or reindex a subset of the documents. The source can be any existing index, alias, or data stream. The destination must differ from the source. For example, you cannot reindex a data stream into itself.

IMPORTANT: Reindex requires _source to be enabled for all documents in the source. The destination should be configured as wanted before calling the reindex API. Reindex does not copy the settings from the source or its associated template. Mappings, shard counts, and replicas, for example, must be configured ahead of time.

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the following security privileges:

  • The read index privilege for the source data stream, index, or alias.
  • The write index privilege for the destination data stream, index, or index alias.
  • To automatically create a data stream or index with a reindex API request, you must have the auto_configure, create_index, or manage index privilege for the destination data stream, index, or alias.
  • If reindexing from a remote cluster, the source.remote.user must have the monitor cluster privilege and the read index privilege for the source data stream, index, or alias.

If reindexing from a remote cluster, you must explicitly allow the remote host in the reindex.remote.whitelist setting. Automatic data stream creation requires a matching index template with data stream enabled.

The dest element can be configured like the index API to control optimistic concurrency control. Omitting version_type or setting it to internal causes Elasticsearch to blindly dump documents into the destination, overwriting any that happen to have the same ID.

Setting version_type to external causes Elasticsearch to preserve the version from the source, create any documents that are missing, and update any documents that have an older version in the destination than they do in the source.

Setting op_type to create causes the reindex API to create only missing documents in the destination. All existing documents will cause a version conflict.

IMPORTANT: Because data streams are append-only, any reindex request to a destination data stream must have an op_type of create. A reindex can only add new documents to a destination data stream. It cannot update existing documents in a destination data stream.

By default, version conflicts abort the reindex process. To continue reindexing if there are conflicts, set the conflicts request body property to proceed. In this case, the response includes a count of the version conflicts that were encountered. Note that the handling of other error types is unaffected by the conflicts property. Additionally, if you opt to count version conflicts, the operation could attempt to reindex more documents from the source than max_docs until it has successfully indexed max_docs documents into the target or it has gone through every document in the source query.

NOTE: The reindex API makes no effort to handle ID collisions. The last document written will "win" but the order isn't usually predictable so it is not a good idea to rely on this behavior. Instead, make sure that IDs are unique by using a script.

Running reindex asynchronously

If the request contains wait_for_completion=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_id>.

Reindex from multiple sources

If you have many sources to reindex it is generally better to reindex them one at a time rather than using a glob pattern to pick up multiple sources. That way you can resume the process if there are any errors by removing the partially completed source and starting over. It also makes parallelizing the process fairly simple: split the list of sources to reindex and run each list in parallel.

For example, you can use a bash script like this:

for index in i1 i2 i3 i4 i5; do
  curl -HContent-Type:application/json -XPOST localhost:9200/_reindex?pretty -d'{
    "source": {
      "index": "'$index'"
    },
    "dest": {
      "index": "'$index'-reindexed"
    }
  }'
done

Throttling

Set requests_per_second to any positive decimal number (1.4, 6, 1000, for example) to throttle the rate at which reindex issues batches of index operations. Requests are throttled by padding each batch with a wait time. To turn off throttling, set requests_per_second to -1.

The throttling is done by waiting between batches so that the scroll that reindex uses internally can be given a timeout that takes into account the padding. 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 then wait for a while before starting the next set. This is "bursty" instead of "smooth".

Slicing

Reindex supports sliced scroll to parallelize the reindexing process. This parallelization can improve efficiency and provide a convenient way to break the request down into smaller parts.

NOTE: Reindexing from remote clusters does not support manual or automatic slicing.

You can slice a reindex request manually by providing a slice ID and total number of slices to each request. You can also let reindex automatically parallelize by using sliced scroll to slice on _id. The slices parameter specifies the number of slices to use.

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

  • You can see these requests in the tasks API. 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 previous point about distribution being uneven and you should conclude that using max_docs with slices might not result in exactly max_docs documents being reindexed.
  • Each sub-request gets a slightly different snapshot of the source, though these are all taken at approximately the same time.

If slicing automatically, setting slices to auto will choose a reasonable number for most indices. If slicing manually or otherwise tuning automatic slicing, use the following guidelines.

Query performance is most efficient when the number of slices is equal to the number of shards in the index. If that number is large (for example, 500), choose a lower number as too many slices will hurt performance. Setting slices higher than the number of shards generally does not improve efficiency and adds overhead.

Indexing performance scales linearly across available resources with the number of slices.

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

Modify documents during reindexing

Like _update_by_query, reindex operations support a script that modifies the document. Unlike _update_by_query, the script is allowed to modify the document's metadata.

Just as in _update_by_query, you can set ctx.op to change the operation that is run on the destination. For example, set ctx.op to noop if your script decides that the document doesn’t have to be indexed in the destination. This "no operation" will be reported in the noop counter in the response body. Set ctx.op to delete if your script decides that the document must be deleted from the destination. The deletion will be reported in the deleted counter in the response body. Setting ctx.op to anything else will return an error, as will setting any other field in ctx.

Think of the possibilities! Just be careful; you are able to change:

  • _id
  • _index
  • _version
  • _routing

Setting _version to null or clearing it from the ctx map is just like not sending the version in an indexing request. It will cause the document to be overwritten in the destination regardless of the version on the target or the version type you use in the reindex API.

Reindex from remote

Reindex supports reindexing from a remote Elasticsearch cluster. The host parameter must contain a scheme, host, port, and optional path. The username and password parameters are optional and when they are present the reindex operation will connect to the remote Elasticsearch node using basic authentication. Be sure to use HTTPS when using basic authentication or the password will be sent in plain text. There are a range of settings available to configure the behavior of the HTTPS connection.

When using Elastic Cloud, it is also possible to authenticate against the remote cluster through the use of a valid API key. Remote hosts must be explicitly allowed with the reindex.remote.whitelist setting. It can be set to a comma delimited list of allowed remote host and port combinations. Scheme is ignored; only the host and port are used. For example:

reindex.remote.whitelist: [otherhost:9200, another:9200, 127.0.10.*:9200, localhost:*"]

The list of allowed hosts must be configured on any nodes that will coordinate the reindex. This feature should work with remote clusters of any version of Elasticsearch. This should enable you to upgrade from any version of Elasticsearch to the current version by reindexing from a cluster of the old version.

WARNING: Elasticsearch does not support forward compatibility across major versions. For example, you cannot reindex from a 7.x cluster into a 6.x cluster.

To enable queries sent to older versions of Elasticsearch, the query parameter is sent directly to the remote host without validation or modification.

NOTE: Reindexing from remote clusters does not support manual or automatic slicing.

Reindexing from a remote server uses an on-heap buffer that defaults to a maximum size of 100mb. If the remote index includes very large documents you'll need to use a smaller batch size. It is also possible to set the socket read timeout on the remote connection with the socket_timeout field and the connection timeout with the connect_timeout field. Both default to 30 seconds.

Configuring SSL parameters

Reindex from remote supports configurable SSL settings. These must be specified in the elasticsearch.yml file, with the exception of the secure settings, which you add in the Elasticsearch keystore. It is not possible to configure SSL in the body of the reindex request.

Query parameters

  • refresh boolean

    If true, the request refreshes affected shards to make this operation visible to search.

  • The throttle for this request in sub-requests per second. By default, there is no throttle.

  • scroll string

    The period of time that a consistent view of the index should be maintained for scrolled search.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • slices number | string

    The number of slices this task should be divided into. It defaults to one slice, which means the task isn't sliced into subtasks.

    Reindex supports sliced scroll to parallelize the reindexing process. This parallelization can improve efficiency and provide a convenient way to break the request down into smaller parts.

    NOTE: Reindexing from remote clusters does not support manual or automatic slicing.

    If set to auto, Elasticsearch chooses the number of slices to use. This setting will use one slice per shard, up to a certain limit. If there are multiple sources, it will choose the number of slices based on the index or backing index with the smallest number of shards.

    Value is auto.

  • timeout string

    The period each indexing waits for automatic index creation, dynamic mapping updates, and waiting for active shards. By default, Elasticsearch waits for at least one minute before failing. The actual wait time could be longer, particularly when multiple waits occur.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

    The number of shard copies that must be active before proceeding with the operation. 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 is one, which means it waits for each primary shard to be active.

    Values are all or index-setting.

  • If true, the request blocks until the operation is complete.

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

POST /_reindex
curl \
 --request POST 'http://api.example.com/_reindex' \
 --header "Authorization: $API_KEY" \
 --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
 --data '"{\n  \"source\": {\n    \"index\": [\"my-index-000001\", \"my-index-000002\"]\n  },\n  \"dest\": {\n    \"index\": \"my-new-index-000002\"\n  }\n}"'
Run `POST _reindex` to reindex from multiple sources. The `index` attribute in source can be a list, which enables you to copy from lots of sources in one request. This example copies documents from the `my-index-000001` and `my-index-000002` indices.
{
  "source": {
    "index": ["my-index-000001", "my-index-000002"]
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000002"
  }
}
You can use Painless to reindex daily indices to apply a new template to the existing documents. The script extracts the date from the index name and creates a new index with `-1` appended. For example, all data from `metricbeat-2016.05.31` will be reindexed into `metricbeat-2016.05.31-1`.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "metricbeat-*"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "metricbeat"
  },
  "script": {
    "lang": "painless",
    "source": "ctx._index = 'metricbeat-' + (ctx._index.substring('metricbeat-'.length(), ctx._index.length())) + '-1'"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex` to extract a random subset of the source for testing. You might need to adjust the `min_score` value depending on the relative amount of data extracted from source.
{
  "max_docs": 10,
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001",
    "query": {
      "function_score" : {
        "random_score" : {},
        "min_score" : 0.9
      }
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex` to modify documents during reindexing. This example bumps the version of the source document.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001",
    "version_type": "external"
  },
  "script": {
    "source": "if (ctx._source.foo == 'bar') {ctx._version++; ctx._source.remove('foo')}",
    "lang": "painless"
  }
}
When using Elastic Cloud, you can run `POST _reindex` and authenticate against a remote cluster with an API key.
{
  "source": {
    "remote": {
      "host": "http://otherhost:9200",
      "username": "user",
      "password": "pass"
    },
    "index": "my-index-000001",
    "query": {
      "match": {
        "test": "data"
      }
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex` to slice a reindex request manually. Provide a slice ID and total number of slices to each request.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001",
    "slice": {
      "id": 0,
      "max": 2
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex?slices=5&refresh` to automatically parallelize using sliced scroll to slice on `_id`. The `slices` parameter specifies the number of slices to use.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
By default if reindex sees a document with routing then the routing is preserved unless it's changed by the script. You can set `routing` on the `dest` request to change this behavior. In this example, run `POST _reindex` to copy all documents from the `source` with the company name `cat` into the `dest` with routing set to `cat`.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "source",
    "query": {
      "match": {
        "company": "cat"
      }
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "dest",
    "routing": "=cat"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex` and use the ingest pipelines feature.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "source"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "dest",
    "pipeline": "some_ingest_pipeline"
  }
}
Run `POST _reindex` and add a query to the `source` to limit the documents to reindex. For example, this request copies documents into `my-new-index-000001` only if they have a `user.id` of `kimchy`.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001",
    "query": {
      "term": {
        "user.id": "kimchy"
      }
    }
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
You can limit the number of processed documents by setting `max_docs`. For example, run `POST _reindex` to copy a single document from `my-index-000001` to `my-new-index-000001`.
{
  "max_docs": 1,
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
You can use source filtering to reindex a subset of the fields in the original documents. For example, run `POST _reindex` the reindex only the `user.id` and `_doc` fields of each document.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001",
    "_source": ["user.id", "_doc"]
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  }
}
A reindex operation can build a copy of an index with renamed fields. If your index has documents with `text` and `flag` fields, you can change the latter field name to `tag` during the reindex.
{
  "source": {
    "index": "my-index-000001"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "my-new-index-000001"
  },
  "script": {
    "source": "ctx._source.tag = ctx._source.remove(\"flag\")"
  }
}

Delete an async ES|QL query Added in 8.13.0

DELETE /_query/async/{id}

If the query is still running, it is cancelled. Otherwise, the stored results are deleted.

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, only the following users can use this API to delete a query:

  • The authenticated user that submitted the original query request
  • Users with the cancel_task cluster privilege
External documentation

Path parameters

  • id string Required

    The unique identifier of the query. A query ID is provided in the ES|QL async query API response for a query that does not complete in the designated time. A query ID is also provided when the request was submitted with the keep_on_completion parameter set to true.

Get the features Added in 7.12.0

GET /_features

Get a list of features that can be included in snapshots using the feature_states field when creating a snapshot. You can use this API to determine which feature states to include when taking a snapshot. By default, all feature states are included in a snapshot if that snapshot includes the global state, or none if it does not.

A feature state includes one or more system indices necessary for a given feature to function. In order to ensure data integrity, all system indices that comprise a feature state are snapshotted and restored together.

The features listed by this API are a combination of built-in features and features defined by plugins. In order for a feature state to be listed in this API and recognized as a valid feature state by the create snapshot API, the plugin that defines that feature must be installed on the master node.

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.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • 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).

    Values are all or index-setting.

Create an index

PUT /{index}

You can use the create index API to add a new index to an Elasticsearch cluster. When creating an index, you can specify the following:

  • Settings for the index.
  • Mappings for fields in the index.
  • Index aliases

Wait for active shards

By default, index creation will only return a response to the client when the primary copies of each shard have been started, or the request times out. The index creation response will indicate what happened. For example, acknowledged indicates whether the index was successfully created in the cluster, while shards_acknowledged indicates whether the requisite number of shard copies were started for each shard in the index before timing out. Note that it is still possible for either acknowledged or shards_acknowledged to be false, but for the index creation to be successful. These values simply indicate whether the operation completed before the timeout. If acknowledged is false, the request timed out before the cluster state was updated with the newly created index, but it probably will be created sometime soon. If shards_acknowledged is false, then the request timed out before the requisite number of shards were started (by default just the primaries), even if the cluster state was successfully updated to reflect the newly created index (that is to say, acknowledged is true).

You can change the default of only waiting for the primary shards to start through the index setting index.write.wait_for_active_shards. Note that changing this setting will also affect the wait_for_active_shards value on all subsequent write operations.

      • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional. An index that was rolled over would normally match the full format, for example logs-2016.10.31-000002). If the index name doesn’t match the pattern, index creation fails.

      • coerce boolean
      • Hide total_fields attributes Show total_fields attributes object
        • limit number | string

          The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

        • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

          This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

      • depth object
        Hide depth attribute Show depth attribute object
        • limit number

          The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.

      • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
        • limit number

          The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

      • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
        • limit number

          The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

      • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
        • limit number

          Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

        You can restrict the use of the mmapfs and the related hybridfs store type via the setting node.store.allow_mmap. This is a boolean setting indicating whether or not memory-mapping is allowed. The default is to allow it. This setting is useful, for example, if you are in an environment where you can not control the ability to create a lot of memory maps so you need disable the ability to use memory-mapping.

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.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

    Comma-separated list of data streams or indices to add. Supports wildcards (*). Wildcard patterns that match both data streams and indices return an error.

  • name string Required

    Alias to update. If the alias doesn’t exist, the request creates it. Index alias names support date math.

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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

Create or update an index template Added in 7.9.0

POST /_index_template/{name}

Index templates define settings, mappings, and aliases that can be applied automatically to new indices.

Elasticsearch applies templates to new indices based on an wildcard pattern that matches the index name. Index templates are applied during data stream or index creation. For data streams, these settings and mappings are applied when the stream's backing indices are created. Settings and mappings specified in a create index API request override any settings or mappings specified in an index template. Changes to index templates do not affect existing indices, including the existing backing indices of a data stream.

You can use C-style /* *\/ block comments in index templates. You can include comments anywhere in the request body, except before the opening curly bracket.

Multiple matching templates

If multiple index templates match the name of a new index or data stream, the template with the highest priority is used.

Multiple templates with overlapping index patterns at the same priority are not allowed and an error will be thrown when attempting to create a template matching an existing index template at identical priorities.

Composing aliases, mappings, and settings

When multiple component templates are specified in the composed_of field for an index template, they are merged in the order specified, meaning that later component templates override earlier component templates. Any mappings, settings, or aliases from the parent index template are merged in next. Finally, any configuration on the index request itself is merged. Mapping definitions are merged recursively, which means that later mapping components can introduce new field mappings and update the mapping configuration. If a field mapping is already contained in an earlier component, its definition will be completely overwritten by the later one. This recursive merging strategy applies not only to field mappings, but also root options like dynamic_templates and meta. If an earlier component contains a dynamic_templates block, then by default new dynamic_templates entries are appended onto the end. If an entry already exists with the same key, then it is overwritten by the new definition.

Path parameters

  • name string Required

    Index or template name

Query parameters

  • create boolean

    If true, this request cannot replace or update existing index templates.

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • cause string

    User defined reason for creating/updating the index template

application/json

Body Required

            The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

          • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

            This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

        • depth object
          Hide depth attribute Show depth attribute object
          • limit number

            The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.

        • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
          • limit number

            The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

        • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
          • limit number

            The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

        • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
          • limit number

            Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

        • Hide dimension_fields attribute Show dimension_fields attribute object
          • limit number

            [preview] This functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

          • limit number

            Number of outstanding bytes that may be consumed by indexing requests. When this limit is reached or exceeded, the node will reject new coordinating and primary operations. When replica operations consume 1.5x this limit, the node will reject new replica operations. Defaults to 10% of the heap.

        • type string Required

          Any of:

          Values are fs, niofs, mmapfs, or hybridfs.

        • allow_mmap boolean

          You can restrict the use of the mmapfs and the related hybridfs store type via the setting node.store.allow_mmap. This is a boolean setting indicating whether or not memory-mapping is allowed. The default is to allow it. This setting is useful, for example, if you are in an environment where you can not control the ability to create a lot of memory maps so you need disable the ability to use memory-mapping.

    • Hide lifecycle attributes Show lifecycle attributes object
      • 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.

      • enabled boolean

        If defined, it turns data stream lifecycle on/off (true/false) for this data stream. A data stream lifecycle that's disabled (enabled: false) will have no effect on the data stream.

  • Hide data_stream attributes Show data_stream attributes object
  • priority number

    Priority to determine index template precedence when a new data stream or index is created. The index template with the highest priority is chosen. If no priority is specified the template is treated as though it is of priority 0 (lowest priority). This number is not automatically generated by Elasticsearch.

  • version number
  • _meta object
    Hide _meta attribute Show _meta attribute object
    • * object Additional properties
  • This setting overrides the value of the action.auto_create_index cluster setting. If set to true in a template, then indices can be automatically created using that template even if auto-creation of indices is disabled via actions.auto_create_index. If set to false, then indices or data streams matching the template must always be explicitly created, and may never be automatically created.

  • The configuration option ignore_missing_component_templates can be used when an index template references a component template that might not exist

  • deprecated boolean

    Marks this index template as deprecated. When creating or updating a non-deprecated index template that uses deprecated components, Elasticsearch will emit a deprecation warning.

Update field mappings

PUT /{index}/_mapping

Add new fields to an existing data stream or index. You can also use this API to change the search settings of existing fields and add new properties to existing object fields. For data streams, these changes are applied to all backing indices by default.

Add multi-fields to an existing field

Multi-fields let you index the same field in different ways. You can use this API to update the fields mapping parameter and enable multi-fields for an existing field. WARNING: If an index (or data stream) contains documents when you add a multi-field, those documents will not have values for the new multi-field. You can populate the new multi-field with the update by query API.

Change supported mapping parameters for an existing field

The documentation for each mapping parameter indicates whether you can update it for an existing field using this API. For example, you can use the update mapping API to update the ignore_above parameter.

Change the mapping of an existing field

Except for supported mapping parameters, you can't change the mapping or field type of an existing field. Changing an existing field could invalidate data that's already indexed.

If you need to change the mapping of a field in a data stream's backing indices, refer to documentation about modifying data streams. If you need to change the mapping of a field in other indices, create a new index with the correct mapping and reindex your data into that index.

Rename a field

Renaming a field would invalidate data already indexed under the old field name. Instead, add an alias field to create an alternate field name.

          • If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.

          • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional.

          • Hide total_fields attributes Show total_fields attributes object
            • limit number | string

              The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

            • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

              This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

          • depth object
            Hide depth attribute Show depth attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.

          • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

          • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

          • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
            • limit number

              Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

          • If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.

          • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional.

Query parameters

  • If true, returns settings in flat format.

  • local boolean

    If true, the request retrieves information from the local node only.

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

Open a closed index

POST /{index}/_open

For data streams, the API opens any closed backing indices.

A closed index is blocked for read/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. This allows closed indices to not have to maintain internal data structures for indexing or searching documents, resulting in a smaller overhead on the cluster.

When opening or closing an index, the master 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 or 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 behavior can be turned off by 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 the action.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.

Because opening or closing an index allocates its shards, the wait_for_active_shards setting on index creation applies to the _open and _close index actions as well.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    Comma-separated list of data streams, indices, and aliases used to limit the request. Supports wildcards (*). By default, you must explicitly name the indices you using to limit the request. To limit a request using _all, *, or other wildcard expressions, change the action.destructive_requires_name setting to false. You can update this setting in the elasticsearch.yml file or using the cluster update settings API.

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.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • 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).

    Values are all or index-setting.

Refresh an index

POST /{index}/_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.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    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 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.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or none.

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

Reload search analyzers Added in 7.3.0

GET /{index}/_reload_search_analyzers

Reload an index's search analyzers and their resources. For data streams, the API reloads search analyzers and resources for the stream's backing indices.

IMPORTANT: After reloading the search analyzers you should clear the request cache to make sure it doesn't contain responses derived from the previous versions of the analyzer.

You can use the reload search analyzers API to pick up changes to synonym files used in the synonym_graph or synonym token filter of a search analyzer. To be eligible, the token filter must have an updateable flag of true and only be used in search analyzers.

NOTE: This API does not perform a reload for each shard of an index. Instead, it performs a reload for each node containing index shards. As a result, the total shard count returned by the API can differ from the number of index shards. Because reloading affects every node with an index shard, it is important to update the synonym file on every data node in the cluster--including nodes that don't contain a shard replica--before using this API. This ensures the synonym file is updated everywhere in the cluster in case shards are relocated in the future.

Resolve the cluster Added in 8.13.0

GET /_resolve/cluster/{name}

Resolve the specified index expressions to return information about each cluster, including the local "querying" cluster, if included. If no index expression is provided, the API will return information about all the remote clusters that are configured on the querying cluster.

This endpoint is useful before doing a cross-cluster search in order to determine which remote clusters should be included in a search.

You use the same index expression with this endpoint as you would for cross-cluster search. Index and cluster exclusions are also supported with this endpoint.

For each cluster in the index expression, information is returned about:

  • Whether the querying ("local") cluster is currently connected to each remote cluster specified in the index expression. Note that this endpoint actively attempts to contact the remote clusters, unlike the remote/info endpoint.
  • Whether each remote cluster is configured with skip_unavailable as true or false.
  • Whether there are any indices, aliases, or data streams on that cluster that match the index expression.
  • Whether the search is likely to have errors returned when you do the cross-cluster search (including any authorization errors if you do not have permission to query the index).
  • Cluster version information, including the Elasticsearch server version.

For example, GET /_resolve/cluster/my-index-*,cluster*:my-index-* returns information about the local cluster and all remotely configured clusters that start with the alias cluster*. Each cluster returns information about whether it has any indices, aliases or data streams that match my-index-*.

Note on backwards compatibility

The ability to query without an index expression was added in version 8.18, so when querying remote clusters older than that, the local cluster will send the index expression dummy* to those remote clusters. Thus, if an errors occur, you may see a reference to that index expression even though you didn't request it. If it causes a problem, you can instead include an index expression like *:* to bypass the issue.

You may want to exclude a cluster or index from a search when:

  • A remote cluster is not currently connected and is configured with skip_unavailable=false. Running a cross-cluster search under those conditions will cause the entire search to fail.
  • A cluster has no matching indices, aliases or data streams for the index expression (or your user does not have permissions to search them). For example, suppose your index expression is logs*,remote1:logs* and the remote1 cluster has no indices, aliases or data streams that match logs*. In that case, that cluster will return no results from that cluster if you include it in a cross-cluster search.
  • The index expression (combined with any query parameters you specify) will likely cause an exception to be thrown when you do the search. In these cases, the "error" field in the _resolve/cluster response will be present. (This is also where security/permission errors will be shown.)
  • A remote cluster is an older version that does not support the feature you want to use in your search.

Test availability of remote clusters

The remote/info endpoint is commonly used to test whether the "local" cluster (the cluster being queried) is connected to its remote clusters, but it does not necessarily reflect whether the remote cluster is available or not. The remote cluster may be available, while the local cluster is not currently connected to it.

You can use the _resolve/cluster API to attempt to reconnect to remote clusters. For example with GET _resolve/cluster or GET _resolve/cluster/*:*. The connected field in the response will indicate whether it was successful. If a connection was (re-)established, this will also cause the remote/info endpoint to now indicate a connected status.

Path parameters

  • name string | array[string] Required

    A comma-separated list of names or index patterns for the indices, aliases, and data streams to resolve. Resources on remote clusters can be specified using the <cluster>:<name> syntax. Index and cluster exclusions (e.g., -cluster1:*) are also supported. If no index expression is specified, information about all remote clusters configured on the local cluster is returned without doing any index matching

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. NOTE: This option is only supported when specifying an index expression. You will get an error if you specify index options to the _resolve/cluster API endpoint that takes no index expression.

  • 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. NOTE: This option is only supported when specifying an index expression. You will get an error if you specify index options to the _resolve/cluster API endpoint that takes no index expression.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or none.

  • ignore_throttled boolean Deprecated

    If true, concrete, expanded, or aliased indices are ignored when frozen. NOTE: This option is only supported when specifying an index expression. You will get an error if you specify index options to the _resolve/cluster API endpoint that takes no index expression.

  • If false, the request returns an error if it targets a missing or closed index. NOTE: This option is only supported when specifying an index expression. You will get an error if you specify index options to the _resolve/cluster API endpoint that takes no index expression.

  • timeout string

    The maximum time to wait for remote clusters to respond. If a remote cluster does not respond within this timeout period, the API response will show the cluster as not connected and include an error message that the request timed out.

    The default timeout is unset and the query can take as long as the networking layer is configured to wait for remote clusters that are not responding (typically 30 seconds).

    Values are -1 or 0.

  }
}
A successful response from `GET /_resolve/cluster/not-present,clust*:my-index*,oldcluster:*?ignore_unavailable=false&timeout=5s`. This type of request can be used to identify potential problems with your cross-cluster search. Note also that a `timeout` of 5 seconds is sent, which sets the maximum time the query will wait for remote clusters to respond. The local cluster has no index called `not_present`. Searching with `ignore_unavailable=false` would return a "no such index" error. The `cluster_one` remote cluster has no indices that match the pattern `my-index*`. There may be no indices that match the pattern or the index could be closed. The `cluster_two` remote cluster is not connected (the attempt to connect failed). Since this cluster is marked as `skip_unavailable=false`, you should probably exclude this cluster from the search by adding `-cluster_two:*` to the search index expression. For `cluster_three`, the error message indicates that this remote cluster did not respond within the 5-second timeout window specified, so it is also marked as not connected. The `oldcluster` remote cluster shows that it has matching indices, but no version information is included. This indicates that the cluster version predates the introduction of the `_resolve/cluster` API, so you may want to exclude it from your cross-cluster search.

Shrink an index Added in 5.0.0

PUT /{index}/_shrink/{target}

Shrink an index into a new index with fewer primary shards.

Before you can shrink an index:

  • The index must be read-only.
  • A copy of every shard in the index must reside on the same node.
  • The index must have a green health status.

To make shard allocation easier, we recommend you also remove the index's replica shards. You can later re-add replica shards as part of the shrink operation.

The requested number of primary shards in the target index must be a factor of the number of shards in the source index. For example an index with 8 primary shards can be shrunk into 4, 2 or 1 primary shards or an index with 15 primary shards can be shrunk into 5, 3 or 1. If the number of shards in the index is a prime number it can only be shrunk into a single primary shard Before shrinking, a (primary or replica) copy of every shard in the index must be present on the same node.

The current write index on a data stream cannot be shrunk. In order to shrink 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 shrunk.

A shrink operation:

  • Creates a new target index with the same definition as the source index, but with a smaller number of primary shards.
  • Hard-links segments from the source index into the target index. If the file system does not support hard-linking, then all segments are copied into the new index, which is a much more time consuming process. Also if using multiple data paths, shards on different data paths require a full copy of segment files if they are not on the same disk since hardlinks do not work across disks.
  • Recovers the target index as though it were a closed index which had just been re-opened. Recovers shards to the .routing.allocation.initial_recovery._id index setting.

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

  • The target index must not exist.
  • The source index must have more primary shards than the target index.
  • The number of primary shards in the target index must be a factor of the number of primary shards in the source index. The source index must have more primary shards than the target index.
  • The index must not contain more than 2,147,483,519 documents in total across all shards that will be shrunk into a single shard on the target index as this is the maximum number of docs that can fit into a single shard.
  • The node handling the shrink 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 shrink.

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • 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).

    Values are all or index-setting.

          • If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.

          • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional. An index that was rolled over would normally match the full format, for example logs-2016.10.31-000002). If the index name doesn’t match the pattern, index creation fails.

              The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

            • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

              This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

            • limit number

              The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.

          • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

          • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

          • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
            • limit number

              Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

          • allow_mmap boolean

            You can restrict the use of the mmapfs and the related hybridfs store type via the setting node.store.allow_mmap. This is a boolean setting indicating whether or not memory-mapping is allowed. The default is to allow it. This setting is useful, for example, if you are in an environment where you can not control the ability to create a lot of memory maps so you need disable the ability to use memory-mapping.

Simulate an index template

POST /_index_template/_simulate

Get the index configuration that would be applied by a particular index template.

Query parameters

  • create boolean

    If true, the template passed in the body is only used if no existing templates match the same index patterns. If false, the simulation uses the template with the highest priority. Note that the template is not permanently added or updated in either case; it is only used for the simulation.

  • cause string

    User defined reason for dry-run creating the new template for simulation purposes

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • If true, returns all relevant default configurations for the index template.

Body

  • This setting overrides the value of the action.auto_create_index cluster setting. If set to true in a template, then indices can be automatically created using that template even if auto-creation of indices is disabled via actions.auto_create_index. If set to false, then indices or data streams matching the template must always be explicitly created, and may never be automatically created.

          • If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.

          • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional. An index that was rolled over would normally match the full format, for example logs-2016.10.31-000002). If the index name doesn’t match the pattern, index creation fails.

Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

            • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

              This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

              The maximum depth for a field, which is measured as the number of inner objects. For instance, if all fields are defined at the root object level, then the depth is 1. If there is one object mapping, then the depth is 2, etc.

          • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

          • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
            • limit number

              The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

          • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
            • limit number

              Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

Simulate an index template

POST /_index_template/_simulate/{name}

Get the index configuration that would be applied by a particular index template.

Path parameters

  • name string Required

    Name of the index template to simulate. To test a template configuration before you add it to the cluster, omit this parameter and specify the template configuration in the request body.

Query parameters

  • create boolean

    If true, the template passed in the body is only used if no existing templates match the same index patterns. If false, the simulation uses the template with the highest priority. Note that the template is not permanently added or updated in either case; it is only used for the simulation.

  • cause string

    User defined reason for dry-run creating the new template for simulation purposes

  • 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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • If true, returns all relevant default configurations for the index template.

Body

  • This setting overrides the value of the action.auto_create_index cluster setting. If set to true in a template, then indices can be automatically created using that template even if auto-creation of indices is disabled via actions.auto_create_index. If set to false, then indices or data streams matching the template must always be explicitly created, and may never be automatically created.

        • If specified, this is the timestamp used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. Use this setting if you create a new index that contains old data and want to use the original creation date to calculate the index age. Specified as a Unix epoch value in milliseconds.

        • Set to true to parse the origination date from the index name. This origination date is used to calculate the index age for its phase transitions. The index name must match the pattern .*-{date_format}-\d+, where the date_format is yyyy.MM.dd and the trailing digits are optional. An index that was rolled over would normally match the full format, for example logs-2016.10.31-000002). If the index name doesn’t match the pattern, index creation fails.

          • limit number | string

            The maximum number of fields in an index. Field and object mappings, as well as field aliases count towards this limit. The limit is in place to prevent mappings and searches from becoming too large. Higher values can lead to performance degradations and memory issues, especially in clusters with a high load or few resources.

          • ignore_dynamic_beyond_limit boolean | string

            This setting determines what happens when a dynamically mapped field would exceed the total fields limit. When set to false (the default), the index request of the document that tries to add a dynamic field to the mapping will fail with the message Limit of total fields [X] has been exceeded. When set to true, the index request will not fail. Instead, fields that would exceed the limit are not added to the mapping, similar to dynamic: false. The fields that were not added to the mapping will be added to the _ignored field.

        • Hide nested_fields attribute Show nested_fields attribute object
          • limit number

            The maximum number of distinct nested mappings in an index. The nested type should only be used in special cases, when arrays of objects need to be queried independently of each other. To safeguard against poorly designed mappings, this setting limits the number of unique nested types per index.

        • Hide nested_objects attribute Show nested_objects attribute object
          • limit number

            The maximum number of nested JSON objects that a single document can contain across all nested types. This limit helps to prevent out of memory errors when a document contains too many nested objects.

        • Hide field_name_length attribute Show field_name_length attribute object
          • limit number

            Setting for the maximum length of a field name. This setting isn’t really something that addresses mappings explosion but might still be useful if you want to limit the field length. It usually shouldn’t be necessary to set this setting. The default is okay unless a user starts to add a huge number of fields with really long names. Default is Long.MAX_VALUE (no limit).

            You can restrict the use of the mmapfs and the related hybridfs store type via the setting node.store.allow_mmap. This is a boolean setting indicating whether or not memory-mapping is allowed. The default is to allow it. This setting is useful, for example, if you are in an environment where you can not control the ability to create a lot of memory maps so you need disable the ability to use memory-mapping.

Split an index Added in 6.1.0

POST /{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.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • 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).

    Values are all or index-setting.

Get index statistics Added in 1.3.0

GET /{index}/_stats

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.

Migrate to data tiers routing Added in 7.14.0

POST /_ilm/migrate_to_data_tiers

Switch the indices, ILM policies, and legacy, composable, and component templates from using custom node attributes and attribute-based allocation filters to using data tiers. Optionally, delete one legacy index template. Using node roles enables ILM to automatically move the indices between data tiers.

Migrating away from custom node attributes routing can be manually performed. This API provides an automated way of performing three out of the four manual steps listed in the migration guide:

  1. Stop setting the custom hot attribute on new indices.
  2. Remove custom allocation settings from existing ILM policies.
  3. Replace custom allocation settings from existing indices with the corresponding tier preference.

ILM must be stopped before performing the migration. Use the stop ILM and get ILM status APIs to wait until the reported operation mode is STOPPED.

External documentation

Query parameters

  • dry_run boolean

    If true, simulates the migration from node attributes based allocation filters to data tiers, but does not perform the migration. This provides a way to retrieve the indices and ILM policies that need to be migrated.

Create an Elasticsearch inference endpoint Added in 8.13.0

PUT /_inference/{task_type}/{elasticsearch_inference_id}

Create an inference endpoint to perform an inference task with the elasticsearch service.


Your Elasticsearch deployment contains preconfigured ELSER and E5 inference endpoints, you only need to create the enpoints using the API if you want to customize the settings.

If you use the ELSER or the E5 model through the elasticsearch service, the API request will automatically download and deploy the model if it isn't downloaded yet.


You might see a 502 bad gateway error in the response when using the Kibana Console. This error usually just reflects a timeout, while the model downloads in the background. You can check the download progress in the Machine Learning UI. If using the Python client, you can set the timeout parameter to a higher value.

After creating the endpoint, wait for the model deployment to complete before using it. To verify the deployment status, use the get trained model statistics API. Look for "state": "fully_allocated" in the response and ensure that the "allocation_count" matches the "target_allocation_count". Avoid creating multiple endpoints for the same model unless required, as each endpoint consumes significant resources.

Path parameters

  • task_type string Required

    The type of the inference task that the model will perform.

    Values are rerank, sparse_embedding, or text_embedding.

      External documentation
    • The total number of allocations that are assigned to the model across machine learning nodes. Increasing this value generally increases the throughput. If adaptive allocations are enabled, do not set this value because it's automatically set.

    • num_threads number Required

      The number of threads used by each model allocation during inference. This setting generally increases the speed per inference request. The inference process is a compute-bound process; threads_per_allocations must not exceed the number of available allocated processors per node. The value must be a power of 2.

Simulate data ingestion Technical preview

POST /_ingest/_simulate

Run ingest pipelines against a set of provided documents, optionally with substitute pipeline definitions, to simulate ingesting data into an index.

This API is meant to be used for troubleshooting or pipeline development, as it does not actually index any data into Elasticsearch.

The API runs the default and final pipeline for that index against a set of documents provided in the body of the request. If a pipeline contains a reroute processor, it follows that reroute processor to the new index, running that index's pipelines as well the same way that a non-simulated ingest would. No data is indexed into Elasticsearch. Instead, the transformed document is returned, along with the list of pipelines that have been run and the name of the index where the document would have been indexed if this were not a simulation. The transformed document is validated against the mappings that would apply to this index, and any validation error is reported in the result.

This API differs from the simulate pipeline API in that you specify a single pipeline for that API, and it runs only that one pipeline. The simulate pipeline API is more useful for developing a single pipeline, while the simulate ingest API is more useful for troubleshooting the interaction of the various pipelines that get applied when ingesting into an index.

By default, the pipeline definitions that are currently in the system are used. However, you can supply substitute pipeline definitions in the body of the request. These will be used in place of the pipeline definitions that are already in the system. This can be used to replace existing pipeline definitions or to create new ones. The pipeline substitutions are used only within this request.

Query parameters

  • pipeline string

    The pipeline to use as the default pipeline. This value can be used to override the default pipeline of the index.

In this example the index `my-index` has a default pipeline called `my-pipeline` and a final pipeline called `my-final-pipeline`. Since both documents are being ingested into `my-index`, both pipelines are run using the pipeline definitions that are already in the system.

In this example the index `my-index` has a default pipeline called `my-pipeline` and a final pipeline called `my-final-pipeline`. But a substitute definition of `my-pipeline` is provided in `pipeline_substitutions`. The substitute `my-pipeline` will be used in place of the `my-pipeline` that is in the system, and then the `my-final-pipeline` that is already defined in the system will run.

In this example, imagine that the index `my-index` has a strict mapping with only the `foo` keyword field defined. Say that field mapping came from a component template named `my-mappings-template`. You want to test adding a new field, `bar`. So a substitute definition of `my-mappings-template` is provided in `component_template_substitutions`. The substitute `my-mappings-template` will be used in place of the existing mapping for `my-index` and in place of the `my-mappings-template` that is in the system.

Get license information

GET /_license

Get information about your Elastic license including its type, its status, when it was issued, and when it expires.


If the master node is generating a new cluster state, the get license API may return a 404 Not Found response. If you receive an unexpected 404 response after cluster startup, wait a short period and retry the request.

Query parameters

  • accept_enterprise boolean Deprecated

    If true, this parameter returns enterprise for Enterprise license types. If false, this parameter returns platinum for both platinum and enterprise license types. This behavior is maintained for backwards compatibility. This parameter is deprecated and will always be set to true in 8.x.

  • local boolean

    Specifies whether to retrieve local information. The default value is false, which means the information is retrieved from the master node.

Set upgrade_mode for ML indices Added in 6.7.0

POST /_ml/set_upgrade_mode

Sets a cluster wide upgrade_mode setting that prepares machine learning indices for an upgrade. When upgrading your cluster, in some circumstances you must restart your nodes and reindex your machine learning indices. In those circumstances, there must be no machine learning jobs running. You can close the machine learning jobs, do the upgrade, then open all the jobs again. Alternatively, you can use this API to temporarily halt tasks associated with the jobs and datafeeds and prevent new jobs from opening. You can also use this API during upgrades that do not require you to reindex your machine learning indices, though stopping jobs is not a requirement in that case. You can see the current value for the upgrade_mode setting by using the get machine learning info API.

Query parameters

  • enabled boolean

    When true, it enables upgrade_mode which temporarily halts all job and datafeed tasks and prohibits new job and datafeed tasks from starting.

  • timeout string

    The time to wait for the request to be completed.

    Values are -1 or 0.

Responses

  • 200 application/json

Close anomaly detection jobs Added in 5.4.0

POST /_ml/anomaly_detectors/{job_id}/_close

A job can be opened and closed multiple times throughout its lifecycle. A closed job cannot receive data or perform analysis operations, but you can still explore and navigate results. When you close a job, it runs housekeeping tasks such as pruning the model history, flushing buffers, calculating final results and persisting the model snapshots. Depending upon the size of the job, it could take several minutes to close and the equivalent time to re-open. After it is closed, the job has a minimal overhead on the cluster except for maintaining its meta data. Therefore it is a best practice to close jobs that are no longer required to process data. If you close an anomaly detection job whose datafeed is running, the request first tries to stop the datafeed. This behavior is equivalent to calling stop datafeed API with the same timeout and force parameters as the close job request. When a datafeed that has a specified end date stops, it automatically closes its associated job.

Path parameters

  • job_id string Required

    Identifier for the anomaly detection job. It can be a job identifier, a group name, or a wildcard expression. You can close multiple anomaly detection jobs in a single API request by using a group name, a comma-separated list of jobs, or a wildcard expression. You can close all jobs by using _all or by specifying * as the job identifier.

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; or contains wildcard expressions and there are only partial matches. By default, it returns an empty jobs array when there are no matches and the subset of results when there are partial matches. If false, the request returns a 404 status code when there are no matches or only partial matches.

  • force boolean

    Use to close a failed job, or to forcefully close a job which has not responded to its initial close request; the request returns without performing the associated actions such as flushing buffers and persisting the model snapshots. If you want the job to be in a consistent state after the close job API returns, do not set to true. This parameter should be used only in situations where the job has already failed or where you are not interested in results the job might have recently produced or might produce in the future.

  • timeout string

    Controls the time to wait until a job has closed.

    Values are -1 or 0.

application/json

Body

  • Refer to the description for the allow_no_match query parameter.

  • force boolean

    Refer to the descriptiion for the force query parameter.

  • timeout string

    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.

      • A normalized score between 0-100, which is based on the probability of the influencer aggregated across detectors. This is the initial value that was calculated at the time the bucket was processed.

      • is_interim boolean Required

        If true, this is an interim result. In other words, the results are calculated based on partial input data.

      • job_id string Required
      • probability number Required

        The probability that the influencer has this behavior, in the range 0 to 1. This value can be held to a high precision of over 300 decimal places, so the influencer_score is provided as a human-readable and friendly interpretation of this value.

      • result_type string Required

        Internal. This value is always set to influencer.

      • Time unit for milliseconds

      • foo string

        Additional influencer properties are added, depending on the fields being analyzed. For example, if it’s analyzing user_name as an influencer, a field user_name is added to the result document. This information enables you to filter the anomaly results more easily.

Get overall bucket results Added in 6.1.0

GET /_ml/anomaly_detectors/{job_id}/results/overall_buckets

Retrievs overall bucket results that summarize the bucket results of multiple anomaly detection jobs.

The overall_score is calculated by combining the scores of all the buckets within the overall bucket span. First, the maximum anomaly_score per anomaly detection job in the overall bucket is calculated. Then the top_n of those scores are averaged to result in the overall_score. This means that you can fine-tune the overall_score so that it is more or less sensitive to the number of jobs that detect an anomaly at the same time. For example, if you set top_n to 1, the overall_score is the maximum bucket score in the overall bucket. Alternatively, if you set top_n to the number of jobs, the overall_score is high only when all jobs detect anomalies in that overall bucket. If you set the bucket_span parameter (to a value greater than its default), the overall_score is the maximum overall_score of the overall buckets that have a span equal to the jobs' largest bucket span.

Path parameters

  • job_id string Required

    Identifier for the anomaly detection job. It can be a job identifier, a group name, a comma-separated list of jobs or groups, or a wildcard expression.

    You can summarize the bucket results for all anomaly detection jobs by using _all or by specifying * as the <job_id>.

Query parameters

  • Specifies what to do when the request:

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

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

  • The span of the overall buckets. Must be greater or equal to the largest bucket span of the specified anomaly detection jobs, which is the default value.

    By default, an overall bucket has a span equal to the largest bucket span of the specified anomaly detection jobs. To override that behavior, use the optional bucket_span parameter.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • end string | number

    Returns overall buckets with timestamps earlier than this time.

  • If true, the output excludes interim results.

  • overall_score number | string

    Returns overall buckets with overall scores greater than or equal to this value.

  • start string | number

    Returns overall buckets with timestamps after this time.

  • top_n number

    The number of top anomaly detection job bucket scores to be used in the overall_score calculation.

Preview a datafeed Added in 5.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}/_preview

This API returns the first "page" of search results from a datafeed. You can preview an existing datafeed or provide configuration details for a datafeed and anomaly detection job in the API. The preview shows the structure of the data that will be passed to the anomaly detection engine. IMPORTANT: When Elasticsearch security features are enabled, the preview uses the credentials of the user that called the API. However, when the datafeed starts it uses the roles of the last user that created or updated the datafeed. To get a preview that accurately reflects the behavior of the datafeed, use the appropriate credentials. You can also use secondary authorization headers to supply the credentials.

Path parameters

  • datafeed_id string Required

    A numerical character string that uniquely identifies the datafeed. This identifier can contain lowercase alphanumeric characters (a-z and 0-9), hyphens, and underscores. It must start and end with alphanumeric characters. NOTE: If you use this path parameter, you cannot provide datafeed or anomaly detection job configuration details in the request body.

Query parameters

  • start string | number

    The start time from where the datafeed preview should begin

  • end string | number

    The end time when the datafeed preview should stop

      • categorization_analyzer string | object

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

      • If categorization_field_name is specified, you can also define optional filters. This property expects an array of regular expressions. The expressions are used to filter out matching sequences from the categorization field values. You can use this functionality to fine tune the categorization by excluding sequences from consideration when categories are defined. For example, you can exclude SQL statements that appear in your log files. This property cannot be used at the same time as categorization_analyzer. If you only want to define simple regular expression filters that are applied prior to tokenization, setting this property is the easiest method. If you also want to customize the tokenizer or post-tokenization filtering, use the categorization_analyzer property instead and include the filters as pattern_replace character filters. The effect is exactly the same.

      • detectors array[object] Required

        Detector configuration objects specify which data fields a job analyzes. They also specify which analytical functions are used. You can specify multiple detectors for a job. If the detectors array does not contain at least one detector, no analysis can occur and an error is returned.

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

        • custom_rules array[object]

          Custom rules enable you to customize the way detectors operate. For example, a rule may dictate conditions under which results should be skipped. Kibana refers to custom rules as job rules.

          Hide custom_rules attributes Show custom_rules attributes object
          • actions array[string]

            The set of actions to be triggered when the rule applies. If more than one action is specified the effects of all actions are combined.

            Supported values include:

            • skip_result: The result will not be created. Unless you also specify skip_model_update, the model will be updated as usual with the corresponding series value.
            • skip_model_update: The value for that series will not be used to update the model. Unless you also specify skip_result, the results will be created as usual. This action is suitable when certain values are expected to be consistently anomalous and they affect the model in a way that negatively impacts the rest of the results.

            Values are skip_result or skip_model_update.

          • conditions array[object]

            An array of numeric conditions when the rule applies. A rule must either have a non-empty scope or at least one condition. Multiple conditions are combined together with a logical AND.

          • scope object

            A scope of series where the rule applies. A rule must either have a non-empty scope or at least one condition. By default, the scope includes all series. Scoping is allowed for any of the fields that are also specified in by_field_name, over_field_name, or partition_field_name.

        • A description of the detector.

        • A unique identifier for the detector. This identifier is based on the order of the detectors in the analysis_config, starting at zero. If you specify a value for this property, it is ignored.

        • Values are all, none, by, or over.

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

        • function string

          The analysis function that is used. For example, count, rare, mean, min, max, or sum.

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

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

        • use_null boolean

          Defines whether a new series is used as the null series when there is no value for the by or partition fields.

      • influencers array[string]

        A comma separated list of influencer field names. Typically these can be the by, over, or partition fields that are used in the detector configuration. You might also want to use a field name that is not specifically named in a detector, but is available as part of the input data. When you use multiple detectors, the use of influencers is recommended as it aggregates results for each influencer entity.

      • latency string

        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.

      • 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.

      • This functionality is reserved for internal use. It is not supported for use in customer environments and is not subject to the support SLA of official GA features. If set to true, the analysis will automatically find correlations between metrics for a given by field value and report anomalies when those correlations cease to hold. For example, suppose CPU and memory usage on host A is usually highly correlated with the same metrics on host B. Perhaps this correlation occurs because they are running a load-balanced application. If you enable this property, anomalies will be reported when, for example, CPU usage on host A is high and the value of CPU usage on host B is low. That is to say, you’ll see an anomaly when the CPU of host A is unusual given the CPU of host B. To use the multivariate_by_fields property, you must also specify by_field_name in your detector.

      • Hide per_partition_categorization attributes Show per_partition_categorization attributes object
        • enabled boolean

          To enable this setting, you must also set the partition_field_name property to the same value in every detector that uses the keyword mlcategory. Otherwise, job creation fails.

        • This setting can be set to true only if per-partition categorization is enabled. If true, both categorization and subsequent anomaly detection stops for partitions where the categorization status changes to warn. This setting makes it viable to have a job where it is expected that categorization works well for some partitions but not others; you do not pay the cost of bad categorization forever in the partitions where it works badly.

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

    • Hide analysis_limits attributes Show analysis_limits attributes object
    • 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.

    • Custom metadata about the job

    • Advanced configuration option, which affects the automatic removal of old model snapshots for this job. It specifies a period of time (in days) after which only the first snapshot per day is retained. This period is relative to the timestamp of the most recent snapshot for this job.

    • data_description object Required
      Hide data_description attributes Show data_description attributes object
      • format string

        Only JSON format is supported at this time.

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

      • The time format, which can be epoch, epoch_ms, or a custom pattern. The value epoch refers to UNIX or Epoch time (the number of seconds since 1 Jan 1970). The value epoch_ms indicates that time is measured in milliseconds since the epoch. The epoch and epoch_ms time formats accept either integer or real values. Custom patterns must conform to the Java DateTimeFormatter class. When you use date-time formatting patterns, it is recommended that you provide the full date, time and time zone. For example: yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssX. If the pattern that you specify is not sufficient to produce a complete timestamp, job creation fails.

    • Advanced configuration option, which affects the automatic removal of old model snapshots for this job. It specifies the maximum period of time (in days) that snapshots are retained. This period is relative to the timestamp of the most recent snapshot for this job. The default value is 10, which means snapshots ten days older than the newest snapshot are deleted.

    • Advanced configuration option. The period over which adjustments to the score are applied, as new data is seen. The default value is the longer of 30 days or 100 bucket_spans.

    • Advanced configuration option. The period of time (in days) that results are retained. Age is calculated relative to the timestamp of the latest bucket result. If this property has a non-null value, once per day at 00:30 (server time), results that are the specified number of days older than the latest bucket result are deleted from Elasticsearch. The default value is null, which means all results are retained. Annotations generated by the system also count as results for retention purposes; they are deleted after the same number of days as results. Annotations added by users are retained forever.

Update a datafeed Added in 6.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}/_update

You must stop and start the datafeed for the changes to be applied. When Elasticsearch security features are enabled, your datafeed remembers which roles the user who updated it had at the time of the update and runs the query using those same roles. If you provide secondary authorization headers, those credentials are used instead.

Path parameters

  • datafeed_id string Required

    A numerical character string that uniquely identifies the datafeed. This identifier can contain lowercase alphanumeric characters (a-z and 0-9), hyphens, and underscores. It must start and end with alphanumeric characters.

Query parameters

  • If true, wildcard indices expressions that resolve into no concrete indices are ignored. This includes the _all string or when no indices are specified.

  • 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. Valid values are:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard patterns are not accepted.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.

    Supported values include:

    • all: Match any data stream or index, including hidden ones.
    • open: Match open, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream.
    • closed: Match closed, non-hidden indices. Also matches any non-hidden data stream. Data streams cannot be closed.
    • hidden: Match hidden data streams and hidden indices. Must be combined with open, closed, or both.
    • none: Wildcard expressions are not accepted.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or none.

  • ignore_throttled boolean Deprecated

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

  • If true, unavailable indices (missing or closed) are ignored.

Get data frame analytics job configuration info Added in 7.3.0

GET /_ml/data_frame/analytics/{id}

You can get information for multiple data frame analytics jobs in a single API request by using a comma-separated list of data frame analytics jobs or a wildcard expression.

Path parameters

  • id string Required

    Identifier for the data frame analytics job. If you do not specify this option, the API returns information for the first hundred data frame analytics jobs.

Query parameters

  • Specifies what to do when the request:

    1. Contains wildcard expressions and there are no data frame analytics jobs that match.
    2. Contains the _all string or no identifiers and there are no matches.
    3. Contains wildcard expressions and there are only partial matches.

    The default value returns an empty data_frame_analytics array when there are no matches and the subset of results when there are partial matches. If this parameter is false, the request returns a 404 status code when there are no matches or only partial matches.

  • from number

    Skips the specified number of data frame analytics jobs.

  • size number

    Specifies the maximum number of data frame analytics jobs to obtain.

  • Indicates if certain fields should be removed from the configuration on retrieval. This allows the configuration to be in an acceptable format to be retrieved and then added to another cluster.

Responses

  • 200 application/json
    Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • count number Required
    • data_frame_analytics array[object] Required

      An array of data frame analytics job resources, which are sorted by the id value in ascending order.

      Hide data_frame_analytics attributes Show data_frame_analytics attributes object
      • analysis object Required
        Hide analysis attributes Show analysis attributes object
        • Hide classification attributes Show classification attributes object
          • alpha number

            Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This parameter affects loss calculations by acting as a multiplier of the tree depth. Higher alpha values result in shallower trees and faster training times. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to zero.

          • dependent_variable string Required

            Defines which field of the document is to be predicted. It must match one of the fields in the index being used to train. If this field is missing from a document, then that document will not be used for training, but a prediction with the trained model will be generated for it. It is also known as continuous target variable. For classification analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric (integer, short, long, byte), categorical (ip or keyword), or boolean. There must be no more than 30 different values in this field. For regression analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric.

          • Advanced configuration option. Controls the fraction of data that is used to compute the derivatives of the loss function for tree training. A small value results in the use of a small fraction of the data. If this value is set to be less than 1, accuracy typically improves. However, too small a value may result in poor convergence for the ensemble and so require more trees. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than zero and less than or equal to 1.

          • Advanced configuration option. Specifies whether the training process should finish if it is not finding any better performing models. If disabled, the training process can take significantly longer and the chance of finding a better performing model is unremarkable.

          • eta number

            Advanced configuration option. The shrinkage applied to the weights. Smaller values result in larger forests which have a better generalization error. However, larger forests cause slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a value between 0.001 and 1.

          • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the rate at which eta increases for each new tree that is added to the forest. For example, a rate of 1.05 increases eta by 5% for each extra tree. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be between 0.5 and 2.

          • Advanced configuration option. Defines the fraction of features that will be used when selecting a random bag for each candidate split. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

          • feature_processors array[object]

            Advanced configuration option. A collection of feature preprocessors that modify one or more included fields. The analysis uses the resulting one or more features instead of the original document field. However, these features are ephemeral; they are not stored in the destination index. Multiple feature_processors entries can refer to the same document fields.

Use this property only if you want to override the automatic feature encoding of the specified fields.

          • gamma number

            Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies a linear penalty associated with the size of individual trees in the forest. A high gamma value causes training to prefer small trees. A small gamma value results in larger individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

          • lambda number

            Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies an L2 regularization term which applies to leaf weights of the individual trees in the forest. A high lambda value causes training to favor small leaf weights. This behavior makes the prediction function smoother at the expense of potentially not being able to capture relevant relationships between the features and the dependent variable. A small lambda value results in large individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

          • Advanced configuration option. A multiplier responsible for determining the maximum number of hyperparameter optimization steps in the Bayesian optimization procedure. The maximum number of steps is determined based on the number of undefined hyperparameters times the maximum optimization rounds per hyperparameter. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

          • Advanced configuration option. Defines the maximum number of decision trees in the forest. The maximum value is 2000. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

          • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the maximum number of feature importance values per document to return. By default, no feature importance calculation occurs.

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

          • Defines the seed for the random generator that is used to pick training data. By default, it is randomly generated. Set it to a specific value to use the same training data each time you start a job (assuming other related parameters such as source and analyzed_fields are the same).

          • Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This soft limit combines with the soft_tree_depth_tolerance to penalize trees that exceed the specified depth; the regularized loss increases quickly beyond this depth. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.

          • Advanced configuration option. This option controls how quickly the regularized loss increases when the tree depth exceeds soft_tree_depth_limit. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.01.

          • Defines the number of categories for which the predicted probabilities are reported. It must be non-negative or -1. If it is -1 or greater than the total number of categories, probabilities are reported for all categories; if you have a large number of categories, there could be a significant effect on the size of your destination index. NOTE: To use the AUC ROC evaluation method, num_top_classes must be set to -1 or a value greater than or equal to the total number of categories.

        • Hide outlier_detection attributes Show outlier_detection attributes object
          • Specifies whether the feature influence calculation is enabled.

          • The minimum outlier score that a document needs to have in order to calculate its feature influence score. Value range: 0-1.

          • method string

            The method that outlier detection uses. Available methods are lof, ldof, distance_kth_nn, distance_knn, and ensemble. The default value is ensemble, which means that outlier detection uses an ensemble of different methods and normalises and combines their individual outlier scores to obtain the overall outlier score.

          • Defines the value for how many nearest neighbors each method of outlier detection uses to calculate its outlier score. When the value is not set, different values are used for different ensemble members. This default behavior helps improve the diversity in the ensemble; only override it if you are confident that the value you choose is appropriate for the data set.

          • The proportion of the data set that is assumed to be outlying prior to outlier detection. For example, 0.05 means it is assumed that 5% of values are real outliers and 95% are inliers.

          • If true, the following operation is performed on the columns before computing outlier scores: (x_i - mean(x_i)) / sd(x_i).

        • Hide regression attributes Show regression attributes object
          • alpha number

            Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This parameter affects loss calculations by acting as a multiplier of the tree depth. Higher alpha values result in shallower trees and faster training times. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to zero.

          • dependent_variable string Required

            Defines which field of the document is to be predicted. It must match one of the fields in the index being used to train. If this field is missing from a document, then that document will not be used for training, but a prediction with the trained model will be generated for it. It is also known as continuous target variable. For classification analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric (integer, short, long, byte), categorical (ip or keyword), or boolean. There must be no more than 30 different values in this field. For regression analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric.

          • Advanced configuration option. Controls the fraction of data that is used to compute the derivatives of the loss function for tree training. A small value results in the use of a small fraction of the data. If this value is set to be less than 1, accuracy typically improves. However, too small a value may result in poor convergence for the ensemble and so require more trees. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than zero and less than or equal to 1.

          • Advanced configuration option. Specifies whether the training process should finish if it is not finding any better performing models. If disabled, the training process can take significantly longer and the chance of finding a better performing model is unremarkable.

          • eta number

            Advanced configuration option. The shrinkage applied to the weights. Smaller values result in larger forests which have a better generalization error. However, larger forests cause slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a value between 0.001 and 1.

          • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the rate at which eta increases for each new tree that is added to the forest. For example, a rate of 1.05 increases eta by 5% for each extra tree. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be between 0.5 and 2.

          • Advanced configuration option. Defines the fraction of features that will be used when selecting a random bag for each candidate split. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

          • feature_processors array[object]

            Advanced configuration option. A collection of feature preprocessors that modify one or more included fields. The analysis uses the resulting one or more features instead of the original document field. However, these features are ephemeral; they are not stored in the destination index. Multiple feature_processors entries can refer to the same document fields. Automatic categorical feature encoding still occurs for the fields that are unprocessed by a custom processor or that have categorical values.

      • query object

        The Elasticsearch query domain-specific language (DSL). This value corresponds to the query object in an Elasticsearch search POST body. All the options that are supported by Elasticsearch can be used, as this object is passed verbatim to Elasticsearch. By default, this property has the following value: {"match_all": {}}.

        Query DSL
    • analysis object Required
      Hide analysis attributes Show analysis attributes object
      • Hide classification attributes Show classification attributes object
        • alpha number

          Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This parameter affects loss calculations by acting as a multiplier of the tree depth. Higher alpha values result in shallower trees and faster training times. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to zero.

        • dependent_variable string Required

          Defines which field of the document is to be predicted. It must match one of the fields in the index being used to train. If this field is missing from a document, then that document will not be used for training, but a prediction with the trained model will be generated for it. It is also known as continuous target variable. For classification analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric (integer, short, long, byte), categorical (ip or keyword), or boolean. There must be no more than 30 different values in this field. For regression analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric.

        • Advanced configuration option. Controls the fraction of data that is used to compute the derivatives of the loss function for tree training. A small value results in the use of a small fraction of the data. If this value is set to be less than 1, accuracy typically improves. However, too small a value may result in poor convergence for the ensemble and so require more trees. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than zero and less than or equal to 1.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies whether the training process should finish if it is not finding any better performing models. If disabled, the training process can take significantly longer and the chance of finding a better performing model is unremarkable.

        • eta number

          Advanced configuration option. The shrinkage applied to the weights. Smaller values result in larger forests which have a better generalization error. However, larger forests cause slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a value between 0.001 and 1.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the rate at which eta increases for each new tree that is added to the forest. For example, a rate of 1.05 increases eta by 5% for each extra tree. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be between 0.5 and 2.

        • Advanced configuration option. Defines the fraction of features that will be used when selecting a random bag for each candidate split. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • feature_processors array[object]

          Advanced configuration option. A collection of feature preprocessors that modify one or more included fields. The analysis uses the resulting one or more features instead of the original document field. However, these features are ephemeral; they are not stored in the destination index. Multiple feature_processors entries can refer to the same document fields. Automatic categorical feature encoding still occurs for the fields that are unprocessed by a custom processor or that have categorical values. Use this property only if you want to override the automatic feature encoding of the specified fields.

          Hide feature_processors attributes Show feature_processors attributes object
        • gamma number

          Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies a linear penalty associated with the size of individual trees in the forest. A high gamma value causes training to prefer small trees. A small gamma value results in larger individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

        • lambda number

          Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies an L2 regularization term which applies to leaf weights of the individual trees in the forest. A high lambda value causes training to favor small leaf weights. This behavior makes the prediction function smoother at the expense of potentially not being able to capture relevant relationships between the features and the dependent variable. A small lambda value results in large individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

        • Advanced configuration option. A multiplier responsible for determining the maximum number of hyperparameter optimization steps in the Bayesian optimization procedure. The maximum number of steps is determined based on the number of undefined hyperparameters times the maximum optimization rounds per hyperparameter. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • Advanced configuration option. Defines the maximum number of decision trees in the forest. The maximum value is 2000. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the maximum number of feature importance values per document to return. By default, no feature importance calculation occurs.

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

        • Defines the seed for the random generator that is used to pick training data. By default, it is randomly generated. Set it to a specific value to use the same training data each time you start a job (assuming other related parameters such as source and analyzed_fields are the same).

        • Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This soft limit combines with the soft_tree_depth_tolerance to penalize trees that exceed the specified depth; the regularized loss increases quickly beyond this depth. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.

        • Advanced configuration option. This option controls how quickly the regularized loss increases when the tree depth exceeds soft_tree_depth_limit. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.01.

        • Defines the number of categories for which the predicted probabilities are reported. It must be non-negative or -1. If it is -1 or greater than the total number of categories, probabilities are reported for all categories; if you have a large number of categories, there could be a significant effect on the size of your destination index. NOTE: To use the AUC ROC evaluation method, num_top_classes must be set to -1 or a value greater than or equal to the total number of categories.

      • Hide outlier_detection attributes Show outlier_detection attributes object
        • Specifies whether the feature influence calculation is enabled.

        • The minimum outlier score that a document needs to have in order to calculate its feature influence score. Value range: 0-1.

        • method string

          The method that outlier detection uses. Available methods are lof, ldof, distance_kth_nn, distance_knn, and ensemble. The default value is ensemble, which means that outlier detection uses an ensemble of different methods and normalises and combines their individual outlier scores to obtain the overall outlier score.

        • Defines the value for how many nearest neighbors each method of outlier detection uses to calculate its outlier score. When the value is not set, different values are used for different ensemble members. This default behavior helps improve the diversity in the ensemble; only override it if you are confident that the value you choose is appropriate for the data set.

        • The proportion of the data set that is assumed to be outlying prior to outlier detection. For example, 0.05 means it is assumed that 5% of values are real outliers and 95% are inliers.

        • If true, the following operation is performed on the columns before computing outlier scores: (x_i - mean(x_i)) / sd(x_i).

      • Hide regression attributes Show regression attributes object
        • alpha number

          Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This parameter affects loss calculations by acting as a multiplier of the tree depth. Higher alpha values result in shallower trees and faster training times. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to zero.

        • Advanced configuration option. Controls the fraction of data that is used to compute the derivatives of the loss function for tree training. A small value results in the use of a small fraction of the data. If this value is set to be less than 1, accuracy typically improves. However, too small a value may result in poor convergence for the ensemble and so require more trees. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than zero and less than or equal to 1.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies whether the training process should finish if it is not finding any better performing models. If disabled, the training process can take significantly longer and the chance of finding a better performing model is unremarkable.

        • eta number

          Advanced configuration option. The shrinkage applied to the weights. Smaller values result in larger forests which have a better generalization error. However, larger forests cause slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a value between 0.001 and 1.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the rate at which eta increases for each new tree that is added to the forest. For example, a rate of 1.05 increases eta by 5% for each extra tree. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be between 0.5 and 2.

        • Advanced configuration option. Defines the fraction of features that will be used when selecting a random bag for each candidate split. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • feature_processors array[object]

          Advanced configuration option. A collection of feature preprocessors that modify one or more included fields. The analysis uses the resulting one or more features instead of the original document field. However, these features are ephemeral; they are not stored in the destination index. Multiple feature_processors entries can refer to the same document fields. Automatic categorical feature encoding still occurs for the fields that are unprocessed by a custom processor or that have categorical values. Use this property only if you want to override the automatic feature encoding of the specified fields.

        • gamma number

          Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies a linear penalty associated with the size of individual trees in the forest. A high gamma value causes training to prefer small trees. A small gamma value results in larger individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

        • lambda number

          Advanced configuration option. Regularization parameter to prevent overfitting on the training data set. Multiplies an L2 regularization term which applies to leaf weights of the individual trees in the forest. A high lambda value causes training to favor small leaf weights. This behavior makes the prediction function smoother at the expense of potentially not being able to capture relevant relationships between the features and the dependent variable. A small lambda value results in large individual trees and slower training. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be a nonnegative value.

        • Advanced configuration option. A multiplier responsible for determining the maximum number of hyperparameter optimization steps in the Bayesian optimization procedure. The maximum number of steps is determined based on the number of undefined hyperparameters times the maximum optimization rounds per hyperparameter. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • Advanced configuration option. Defines the maximum number of decision trees in the forest. The maximum value is 2000. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization.

        • Advanced configuration option. Specifies the maximum number of feature importance values per document to return. By default, no feature importance calculation occurs.

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

        • Defines the seed for the random generator that is used to pick training data. By default, it is randomly generated. Set it to a specific value to use the same training data each time you start a job (assuming other related parameters such as source and analyzed_fields are the same).

        • Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This soft limit combines with the soft_tree_depth_tolerance to penalize trees that exceed the specified depth; the regularized loss increases quickly beyond this depth. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.

        • Advanced configuration option. This option controls how quickly the regularized loss increases when the tree depth exceeds soft_tree_depth_limit. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to 0.01.

        • Defines the number of categories for which the predicted probabilities are reported. It must be non-negative or -1. If it is -1 or greater than the total number of categories, probabilities are reported for all categories; if you have a large number of categories, there could be a significant effect on the size of your destination index. NOTE: To use the AUC ROC evaluation method, num_top_classes must be set to -1 or a value greater than or equal to the total number of categories.

      • Hide outlier_detection attributes Show outlier_detection attributes object
        • Specifies whether the feature influence calculation is enabled.

        • The minimum outlier score that a document needs to have in order to calculate its feature influence score. Value range: 0-1.

        • method string

          The method that outlier detection uses. Available methods are lof, ldof, distance_kth_nn, distance_knn, and ensemble. The default value is ensemble, which means that outlier detection uses an ensemble of different methods and normalises and combines their individual outlier scores to obtain the overall outlier score.

        • Defines the value for how many nearest neighbors each method of outlier detection uses to calculate its outlier score. When the value is not set, different values are used for different ensemble members. This default behavior helps improve the diversity in the ensemble; only override it if you are confident that the value you choose is appropriate for the data set.

        • The proportion of the data set that is assumed to be outlying prior to outlier detection. For example, 0.05 means it is assumed that 5% of values are real outliers and 95% are inliers.

        • If true, the following operation is performed on the columns before computing outlier scores: (x_i - mean(x_i)) / sd(x_i).

      • Hide regression attributes Show regression attributes object
        • alpha number

          Advanced configuration option. Machine learning uses loss guided tree growing, which means that the decision trees grow where the regularized loss decreases most quickly. This parameter affects loss calculations by acting as a multiplier of the tree depth. Higher alpha values result in shallower trees and faster training times. By default, this value is calculated during hyperparameter optimization. It must be greater than or equal to zero.

        • dependent_variable string Required

          Defines which field of the document is to be predicted. It must match one of the fields in the index being used to train. If this field is missing from a document, then that document will not be used for training, but a prediction with the trained model will be generated for it. It is also known as continuous target variable. For classification analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric (integer, short, long, byte), categorical (ip or keyword), or boolean. There must be no more than 30 different values in this field. For regression analysis, the data type of the field must be numeric.
