Get shard recovery information Generally available

GET /_cat/recovery
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Get information about ongoing and completed shard recoveries. Shard recovery is the process of initializing a shard copy, such as restoring a primary shard from a snapshot or syncing a replica shard from a primary shard. When a shard recovery completes, the recovered shard is available for search and indexing. For data streams, the API returns information about the stream’s backing indices. 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 index recovery API.

Cluster

Explain the shard allocations Generally available; Added in 5.0.0

GET /_cluster/allocation/explain
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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

  • current_node string

    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.

Reroute the cluster Generally available; Added in 5.0.0

POST /_cluster/reroute
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

  • retry_failed boolean

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

  • master_timeout string

    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 Generally available; Added in 1.3.0

GET /_cluster/state
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

  • Cluster privileges: monitor,manage

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

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

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

  • flat_settings boolean

    Return settings in flat format (default: false)

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • local boolean

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

  • master_timeout string

    Specify timeout for connection to master

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • wait_for_metadata_version number

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

Get the cluster health Generally available; Added in 8.7.0

GET /_health_report/{feature}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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

PUT /_connector/_sync_job/{connector_sync_job_id}/_stats
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Stats include: deleted_document_count, indexed_document_count, indexed_document_volume, and total_document_count. You can also update last_seen. This API is mainly used by the connector service for updating sync job information.

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

application/json

Body Required

  • deleted_document_count number Required

    The number of documents the sync job deleted.

  • indexed_document_count number Required

    The number of documents the sync job indexed.

  • indexed_document_volume number Required

    The total size of the data (in MiB) the sync job indexed.

  • last_seen 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.

  • metadata object

Forget a follower Generally available; Added in 6.7.0

POST /{index}/_ccr/forget_follower
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Bulk index or delete documents Generally available

PUT /_bulk
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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

  • include_source_on_error boolean

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

  • list_executed_pipelines boolean

    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.

  • require_alias boolean

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

  • require_data_stream boolean

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

Request examples
Run `POST _bulk` to perform multiple operations. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "field1" : "value1" }
{ "delete" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "2" } }
{ "create" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "3" } }
{ "field1" : "value3" }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "1", "_index" : "test"} }
{ "doc" : {"field2" : "value2"} }
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} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : { "_id" : "0", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }
{ "script" : { "source": "ctx._source.counter += params.param1", "lang" : "painless", "params" : {"param1" : 1}}, "upsert" : {"counter" : 1}}
{ "update" : {"_id" : "2", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"}, "doc_as_upsert" : true }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "3", "_index" : "index1", "_source" : true} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "4", "_index" : "index1"} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"}, "_source": true}
To return only information about failed operations, run `POST /_bulk?filter_path=items.*.error`. 
{ "update": {"_id": "5", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "update": {"_id": "6", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "create": {"_id": "7", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "my_field": "foo" }
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. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "1", "dynamic_templates": {"work_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value1", "work_location": "41.12,-71.34", "raw_location": "41.12,-71.34"}
{ "create" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "2", "dynamic_templates": {"home_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value2", "home_location": "41.12,-71.34"}

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.

Bulk index or delete documents Generally available

PUT /{index}/_bulk
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the data stream, index, or index alias to perform bulk actions on.

Query parameters

  • include_source_on_error boolean

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

  • list_executed_pipelines boolean

    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.

  • require_alias boolean

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

  • require_data_stream boolean

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

Request examples
Run `POST _bulk` to perform multiple operations. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "field1" : "value1" }
{ "delete" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "2" } }
{ "create" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "3" } }
{ "field1" : "value3" }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "1", "_index" : "test"} }
{ "doc" : {"field2" : "value2"} }
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} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : { "_id" : "0", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }
{ "script" : { "source": "ctx._source.counter += params.param1", "lang" : "painless", "params" : {"param1" : 1}}, "upsert" : {"counter" : 1}}
{ "update" : {"_id" : "2", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"}, "doc_as_upsert" : true }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "3", "_index" : "index1", "_source" : true} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "4", "_index" : "index1"} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"}, "_source": true}
To return only information about failed operations, run `POST /_bulk?filter_path=items.*.error`. 
{ "update": {"_id": "5", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "update": {"_id": "6", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "create": {"_id": "7", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "my_field": "foo" }
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. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "1", "dynamic_templates": {"work_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value1", "work_location": "41.12,-71.34", "raw_location": "41.12,-71.34"}
{ "create" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "2", "dynamic_templates": {"home_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value2", "home_location": "41.12,-71.34"}

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.

Bulk index or delete documents Generally available

POST /{index}/_bulk
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the data stream, index, or index alias to perform bulk actions on.

Query parameters

  • include_source_on_error boolean

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

  • list_executed_pipelines boolean

    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.

  • require_alias boolean

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

  • require_data_stream boolean

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

Request examples
Run `POST _bulk` to perform multiple operations. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "1" } }
{ "field1" : "value1" }
{ "delete" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "2" } }
{ "create" : { "_index" : "test", "_id" : "3" } }
{ "field1" : "value3" }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "1", "_index" : "test"} }
{ "doc" : {"field2" : "value2"} }
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} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : { "_id" : "0", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }
{ "script" : { "source": "ctx._source.counter += params.param1", "lang" : "painless", "params" : {"param1" : 1}}, "upsert" : {"counter" : 1}}
{ "update" : {"_id" : "2", "_index" : "index1", "retry_on_conflict" : 3} }

{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"} }
{ "update" : {"_id" : "4", "_index" : "index1"} }
{ "doc" : {"field" : "value"}, "_source": true}
To return only information about failed operations, run `POST /_bulk?filter_path=items.*.error`. 
{ "update": {"_id": "5", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "update": {"_id": "6", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "doc": {"my_field": "foo"} }
{ "create": {"_id": "7", "_index": "index1"} }
{ "my_field": "foo" }
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. 
{ "index" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "1", "dynamic_templates": {"work_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value1", "work_location": "41.12,-71.34", "raw_location": "41.12,-71.34"}
{ "create" : { "_index" : "my_index", "_id" : "2", "dynamic_templates": {"home_location": "geo_point"}} }
{ "field" : "value2", "home_location": "41.12,-71.34"}

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.

Get a document's source Generally available

GET /{index}/_source/{id}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Get the source of a document. For example:

GET my-index-000001/_source/1

You can use the source filtering parameters to control which parts of the _source are returned:

GET my-index-000001/_source/1/?_source_includes=*.id&_source_excludes=entities

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
External documentation

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the index that contains the document.

  • id string Required

    A unique document identifier.

Query parameters

  • preference string

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

  • 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 in the response.

  • _source_includes string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of source fields to include in the response.

  • stored_fields string | array[string]

    A comma-separated list of stored fields to return as part of a hit.

  • version number

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

  • version_type string

    The version type.

    Values are internal, external, external_gte, or force.

Throttle a reindex operation Generally available; Added in 2.4.0

POST /_reindex/{task_id}/_rethrottle
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Change the number of requests per second for a particular reindex operation. For example:

POST _reindex/r1A2WoRbTwKZ516z6NEs5A:36619/_rethrottle?requests_per_second=-1

Rethrottling that speeds up the query takes effect immediately. Rethrottling that slows down the query will take effect after completing the current batch. This behavior prevents scroll timeouts.

Path parameters

  • task_id string Required

    The task identifier, which can be found by using the tasks API.

Update documents Generally available; Added in 2.4.0

POST /{index}/_update_by_query
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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

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

  • read
  • index or write

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

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

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

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

Throttling update requests

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

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

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

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

Slicing

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Update the document source

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

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

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

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

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read,write

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

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

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • analyzer string

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

  • analyze_wildcard boolean

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

  • conflicts string

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

    Values are abort or proceed.

  • default_operator string

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

    Values are and, AND, or, or OR.

  • df string

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

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

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

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

  • from number

    Skips the specified number of documents.

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • lenient boolean

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

  • max_docs number

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

  • pipeline string

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

  • preference string

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

  • q string

    A query in the Lucene query string syntax.

  • refresh boolean

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

  • request_cache boolean

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

  • requests_per_second number

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

  • routing string

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

  • scroll string

    The period to retain the search context for scrolling.

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • scroll_size number

    The size of the scroll request that powers the operation.

  • search_timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • search_type string

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

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • slices number | string

    The number of slices this task should be divided into.

    Value is auto.

  • sort array[string]

    A comma-separated list of : pairs.

  • stats array[string]

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

  • terminate_after number

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

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

  • timeout string

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

    Values are -1 or 0.

  • version boolean

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

  • version_type boolean

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

  • wait_for_active_shards number | string

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

    Values are all or index-setting.

  • wait_for_completion boolean

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

Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

The API follows the same structure as the multi search (_msearch) API. However, similar to the fleet search API, it supports the wait_for_checkpoints parameter.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
External documentation

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • ccs_minimize_roundtrips boolean

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

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

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

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

  • ignore_throttled boolean

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

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • pre_filter_shard_size number

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

  • search_type string

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

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • rest_total_hits_as_int boolean

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

  • typed_keys boolean

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

  • wait_for_checkpoints array[number]

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

  • allow_partial_search_results boolean

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

This filter roundtrip can limit the number of shards significantly if for instance a shard can not match any documents based on its rewrite method i.e., if date filters are mandatory to match but the shard bounds and the query are disjoint.

  • search_type string

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

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

  • rest_total_hits_as_int boolean

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

  • typed_keys boolean

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

  • wait_for_checkpoints array[number]

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

  • allow_partial_search_results boolean

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

Executes several fleet searches with a single API request Technical preview; Added in 7.16.0

GET /{index}/_fleet/_fleet_msearch
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

The API follows the same structure as the multi search (_msearch) API. However, similar to the fleet search API, it supports the wait_for_checkpoints parameter.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
External documentation

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    A single target to search. If the target is an index alias, it must resolve to a single index.

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • ccs_minimize_roundtrips boolean

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

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

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

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

  • ignore_throttled boolean

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

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

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

  • search_type string

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

    Values are query_then_fetch or dfs_query_then_fetch.

    • type string

      Any of:
      HighlighterType string HighlighterType string

      Values are plain, fvh, or unified.

    • boundary_chars string

      A string that contains each boundary character.

    • boundary_max_scan number

      How far to scan for boundary characters.

    • boundary_scanner string

      Values are chars, sentence, or word.

    • boundary_scanner_locale string

      Controls which locale is used to search for sentence and word boundaries. This parameter takes a form of a language tag, for example: "en-US", "fr-FR", "ja-JP".

      External documentation
    • max_fragment_length number
    • max_analyzed_offset number

      If set to a non-negative value, highlighting stops at this defined maximum limit. The rest of the text is not processed, thus not highlighted and no error is returned The max_analyzed_offset query setting does not override the index.highlight.max_analyzed_offset setting, which prevails when it’s set to lower value than the query setting.

Get tokens from text analysis Generally available

POST /_analyze
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

The analyze API performs analysis on a text string and returns the resulting tokens.

Generating excessive amount of tokens may cause a node to run out of memory. The index.analyze.max_token_count setting enables you to limit the number of tokens that can be produced. If more than this limit of tokens gets generated, an error occurs. The _analyze endpoint without a specified index will always use 10000 as its limit.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: index

You can apply any of the built-in analyzers to the text string without specifying an index. 
{
  "analyzer": "standard",
  "text": "this is a test"
}
If the text parameter is provided as array of strings, it is analyzed as a multi-value field. 
{
  "analyzer": "standard",
  "text": [
    "this is a test",
    "the second text"
  ]
}
You can test a custom transient analyzer built from tokenizers, token filters, and char filters. Token filters use the filter parameter. 
{
  "tokenizer": "keyword",
  "filter": [
    "lowercase"
  ],
  "char_filter": [
    "html_strip"
  ],
  "text": "this is a <b>test</b>"

  ],
  "text": "this is a test"
}
Run `GET /analyze_sample/_analyze` to run an analysis on the text using the default index analyzer associated with the `analyze_sample` index. Alternatively, the analyzer can be derived based on a field mapping. 
{
  "field": "obj1.field1",
  "text": "this is a test"
}
Run `GET /analyze_sample/_analyze` and supply a normalizer for a keyword field if there is a normalizer associated with the specified index. 
{
  "normalizer": "my_normalizer",
  "text": "BaR"
}
If you want to get more advanced details, set `explain` to `true`. It will output all token attributes for each token. You can filter token attributes you want to output by setting the `attributes` option.

Get tokens from text analysis Generally available

GET /{index}/_analyze
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

The analyze API performs analysis on a text string and returns the resulting tokens.

Generating excessive amount of tokens may cause a node to run out of memory. The index.analyze.max_token_count setting enables you to limit the number of tokens that can be produced. If more than this limit of tokens gets generated, an error occurs. The _analyze endpoint without a specified index will always use 10000 as its limit.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: index

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Index used to derive the analyzer. If specified, the analyzer or field parameter overrides this value. If no index is specified or the index does not have a default analyzer, the analyze API uses the standard analyzer.

Clone an index Generally available; Added in 7.4.0

POST /{index}/_clone/{target}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Clone an existing index into a new index. Each original primary shard is cloned into a new primary shard in the new index.

IMPORTANT: Elasticsearch does not apply index templates to the resulting index. The API also does not copy index metadata from the original index. Index metadata includes aliases, index lifecycle management phase definitions, and cross-cluster replication (CCR) follower information. For example, if you clone a CCR follower index, the resulting clone will not be a follower index.

The clone API copies most index settings from the source index to the resulting index, with the exception of index.number_of_replicas and index.auto_expand_replicas. To set the number of replicas in the resulting index, configure these settings in the clone request.

Cloning works as follows:

  • First, it creates a new target index with the same definition as the source index.
  • Then it hard-links segments from the source index into the target index. If the file system does not support hard-linking, all segments are copied into the new index, which is a much more time consuming process.
  • Finally, it recovers the target index as though it were a closed index which had just been re-opened.

IMPORTANT: Indices can only be cloned if they meet the following requirements:

  • The index must be marked as read-only and have a cluster health status of green.
  • The target index must not exist.
  • The source index must have the same number of primary shards as the target index.
  • The node handling the clone process must have sufficient free disk space to accommodate a second copy of the existing index.

The current write index on a data stream cannot be cloned. In order to clone 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 cloned.

NOTE: Mappings cannot be specified in the _clone request. The mappings of the source index will be used for the target index.

Monitor the cloning process

The cloning process can be monitored with the cat recovery API or the cluster health API can be used to wait until all primary shards have been allocated by setting the wait_for_status parameter to yellow.

The _clone API returns as soon as the target index has been added to the cluster state, before any shards have been allocated. At this point, all shards are in the state unassigned. If, for any reason, the target index can't be allocated, its primary shard will remain unassigned until it can be allocated on that node.

Once the primary shard is allocated, it moves to state initializing, and the clone process begins. When the clone operation completes, the shard will become active. At that point, Elasticsearch will try to allocate any replicas and may decide to relocate the primary shard to another node.

Wait for active shards

Because the clone operation creates a new index to clone the shards to, the wait for active shards setting on index creation applies to the clone index action as well.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: manage

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Name of the source index to clone.

  • target string Required

    Name of the target index to create.

Query parameters

  • master_timeout string

    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.

    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

  • master_timeout string

    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

Analyze the index disk usage Technical preview; Added in 7.15.0

POST /{index}/_disk_usage
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Analyze the disk usage of each field of an index or data stream. This API might not support indices created in previous Elasticsearch versions. The result of a small index can be inaccurate as some parts of an index might not be analyzed by the API.

NOTE: The total size of fields of the analyzed shards of the index in the response is usually smaller than the index store_size value because some small metadata files are ignored and some parts of data files might not be scanned by the API. Since stored fields are stored together in a compressed format, the sizes of stored fields are also estimates and can be inaccurate. The stored size of the _id field is likely underestimated while the _source field is overestimated.

Path parameters

  • index string | array[string] Required

    Comma-separated list of data streams, indices, and aliases used to limit the request. It’s recommended to execute this API with a single index (or the latest backing index of a data stream) as the API consumes resources significantly.

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • 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.

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

  • flush boolean

    If true, the API performs a flush before analysis. If false, the response may not include uncommitted data.

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • run_expensive_tasks boolean

    Analyzing field disk usage is resource-intensive. To use the API, this parameter must be set to true.

Update field mappings Generally available

POST /{index}/_mapping
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

Open a closed index Generally available

POST /{index}/_open
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: manage

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

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • 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.

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

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • master_timeout string

    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.

Refresh an index Generally available

POST /_refresh
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Reload search analyzers Generally available; Added in 7.3.0

POST /{index}/_reload_search_analyzers
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Split an index Generally available; Added in 6.1.0

PUT /{index}/_split/{target}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: manage

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Name of the source index to split.

  • target string Required

    Name of the target index to create.

Get index statistics Generally available; Added in 1.3.0

GET /{index}/_stats
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

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

  • all_shards boolean

    If true, the validation is executed on all shards instead of one random shard per index.

  • analyzer string

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

  • analyze_wildcard boolean

    If true, wildcard and prefix queries are analyzed.

  • default_operator string

    The default operator for query string query: AND or OR.

    Values are and, AND, or, or OR.

  • df string

    Field to use as default where no field prefix is given in the query string. This parameter can only be used when the q query string parameter is 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, such as open,hidden.

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

  • explain boolean

    If true, the response returns detailed information if an error has occurred.

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

  • lenient boolean

    If true, format-based query failures (such as providing text to a numeric field) in the query string will be ignored.

  • rewrite boolean

    If true, returns a more detailed explanation showing the actual Lucene query that will be executed.

  • q string

    Query in the Lucene query string syntax.

Simulate data ingestion Technical preview; Added in 8.12.0

GET /_ingest/{index}/_simulate
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Request examples
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. 
{
  "docs": [
    {
      "_id": 123,
      "_index": "my-index",
      "_source": {
        "foo": "bar"
      }
    },
    {
      "_id": 456,
      "_index": "my-index",
      "_source": {
        "foo": "rab"
      }
    }
  ]
}
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. 
{
  "docs": [
    {
      "_index": "my-index",
      "_id": 123,
      "_source": {
        "foo": "bar"
      }
    },
    {
      "_index": "my-index",

          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
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.

      "_index": "my-index",

 --header "Authorization: $API_KEY"

Create a datafeed Generally available; Added in 5.4.0

PUT /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Datafeeds retrieve data from Elasticsearch for analysis by an anomaly detection job. You can associate only one datafeed with each anomaly detection job. The datafeed contains a query that runs at a defined interval (frequency). If you are concerned about delayed data, you can add a delay (query_delay') at each interval. By default, the datafeed uses the following query:{"match_all": {"boost": 1}}`.

When Elasticsearch security features are enabled, your datafeed remembers which roles the user who created it had at the time of creation and runs the query using those same roles. If you provide secondary authorization headers, those credentials are used instead. You must use Kibana, this API, or the create anomaly detection jobs API to create a datafeed. Do not add a datafeed directly to the .ml-config index. Do not give users write privileges on the .ml-config index.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
  • Cluster privileges: manage_ml

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

  • allow_no_indices boolean

    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.

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

  • ignore_throttled boolean Deprecated

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

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

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

Get anomaly detection jobs configuration info Generally available; Added in 5.5.0

GET /_ml/anomaly_detectors
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

You can get information for 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 get information for all anomaly detection jobs by using _all, by specifying * as the <job_id>, or by omitting the <job_id>.

Required authorization

  • Cluster privileges: monitor_ml

Query parameters

  • allow_no_match boolean

    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.

    The default value is true, which 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.

  • exclude_generated boolean

          One of:
          CategorizationAnalyzer string CategorizationAnalyzerDefinition object
        • categorization_field_name string

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

        • categorization_filters array[string]

          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.

          Hide detectors attributes Show detectors attributes object
          • by_field_name string

            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.

          • detector_description string

            A description of the detector.

          • detector_index number

            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.

          • exclude_frequent string

            Values are all, none, by, or over.

          • field_name string

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

          • function string

            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.

        • model_prune_window 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.

        • multivariate_by_fields boolean

          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.

          • stop_on_warn boolean

            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.

        • summary_count_field_name string

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

        • time_format string

          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.

Preview a datafeed Generally available; Added in 5.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}/_preview
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
  • Cluster privileges: manage_ml

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

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

      • categorization_filters array[string]

        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.

        Hide detectors attributes Show detectors attributes object

          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.

            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.

        • detector_description string

          A description of the detector.

        • detector_index number

          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.

        • exclude_frequent string

          Values are all, none, by, or over.

        • partition_field_name string

          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.

      • model_prune_window 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.

      • multivariate_by_fields boolean

        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.

      • per_partition_categorization object
        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.

        • stop_on_warn boolean

          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.

      • summary_count_field_name string

      • time_format string

        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.

Preview a datafeed Generally available; Added in 5.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/_preview
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: read
  • Cluster privileges: manage_ml

Query parameters

  • start string | number

    The start time from where the datafeed preview should begin

  • end string | number

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

      • categorization_filters array[string]

        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.

          • 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.

        • detector_description string

          A description of the detector.

        • detector_index number

          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.

        • exclude_frequent string

          Values are all, none, by, or over.

        • partition_field_name string

          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.

      • model_prune_window 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.

      • multivariate_by_fields boolean

        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.

      • per_partition_categorization object
        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.

        • stop_on_warn boolean

          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.

      • time_format string

        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.

Stop datafeeds Generally available; Added in 5.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}/_stop
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

A datafeed that is stopped ceases to retrieve data from Elasticsearch. A datafeed can be started and stopped multiple times throughout its lifecycle.

Required authorization

  • Cluster privileges: manage_ml

Path parameters

  • datafeed_id string Required

    Identifier for the datafeed. You can stop multiple datafeeds in a single API request by using a comma-separated list of datafeeds or a wildcard expression. You can close all datafeeds by using _all or by specifying * as the identifier.

Query parameters

  • allow_no_match boolean

    Specifies what to do when the request:

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

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

  • force boolean

    If true, the datafeed is stopped forcefully.

  • timeout string

    Specifies the amount of time to wait until a datafeed stops.

    Values are -1 or 0.

Update a datafeed Generally available; Added in 6.4.0

POST /_ml/datafeeds/{datafeed_id}/_update
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

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.

Required authorization

Update an anomaly detection job Generally available; Added in 5.5.0

POST /_ml/anomaly_detectors/{job_id}/_update
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Updates certain properties of an anomaly detection job.

Required authorization

  • Cluster privileges: manage_ml

Path parameters

  • job_id string Required

    Identifier for the job.

application/json

Body Required

  • allow_lazy_open boolean

    Advanced configuration option. Specifies whether this job can open when there is insufficient machine learning node capacity for it to be immediately assigned to a node. If false and a machine learning node with capacity to run the job cannot immediately be found, the open anomaly detection jobs API returns an error. However, this is also subject to the cluster-wide xpack.ml.max_lazy_ml_nodes setting. If this option is set to true, the open anomaly detection jobs API does not return an error and the job waits in the opening state until sufficient machine learning node capacity is available.

    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. Valid values range from 0 to model_snapshot_retention_days. For jobs created before version 7.8.0, the default value matches model_snapshot_retention_days.

  • model_snapshot_retention_days number

    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.

  • renormalization_window_days number

    Advanced configuration option. The period over which adjustments to the score are applied, as new data is seen.

  • results_retention_days number

    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.

    • stop_on_warn boolean

      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.

  • analysis object
    Hide analysis attributes Show analysis attributes object
    • classification 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.

      • downsample_factor number

        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.

      • early_stopping_enabled boolean

        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.

      • eta_growth_rate_per_tree number

        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.

      • feature_bag_fraction number

        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.

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

          • target_map object Required

            The field value to target mean transition map.

      • 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.

      • max_optimization_rounds_per_hyperparameter number

        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.

      • max_trees number

        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.

      • num_top_feature_importance_values number

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

      • prediction_field_name string

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

      • randomize_seed number

        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).

      • soft_tree_depth_limit 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 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.

      • soft_tree_depth_tolerance number

        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.

      • training_percent string | number

        One of:
        Percentage string Percentage number
      • class_assignment_objective string
      • num_top_classes number

        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.

      • compute_feature_influence boolean

        Specifies whether the feature influence calculation is enabled.

      • feature_influence_threshold number

        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.

      • n_neighbors number

        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.

      • outlier_fraction number

        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.

      • standardization_enabled boolean

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

      • 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.

      • max_optimization_rounds_per_hyperparameter number

        Advanced configuration option. A multiplier responsible for determining the maximum number of hyperparameter optimization steps in the Bayesian optimization procedure.

        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).

      • soft_tree_depth_limit 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 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.

      • soft_tree_depth_tolerance number

        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.

  • max_num_threads number

    The maximum number of threads to be used by the analysis. Using more threads may decrease the time necessary to complete the analysis at the cost of using more CPU. Note that the process may use additional threads for operational functionality other than the analysis itself.

Node lifecycle

Cancel node shutdown preparations Generally available; Added in 7.13.0

DELETE /_nodes/{node_id}/shutdown
Api key auth Basic auth Bearer auth

Remove a node from the shutdown list so it can resume normal operations. You must explicitly clear the shutdown request when a node rejoins the cluster or when a node has permanently left the cluster. Shutdown requests are never removed automatically by Elasticsearch.

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

If the operator privileges feature is enabled, you must be an operator to use this API.

Required authorization

  • Cluster privileges: manage

Path parameters

  • node_id string Required

    The node id of node to be removed from the shutdown state

Query parameters

  • master_timeout string

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

  • 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 nanos, micros, ms, s, m, h, or d.

Responses
