Document APIs

Introduced 0.1.0

The document APIs allow you to handle documents relative to your index, such as adding, updating, and deleting documents.

Document APIs are separated into two categories: single document operations and multi-document operations. Multi-document operations offer performance advantages over submitting many individual requests, so whenever practical, we recommend that you use multi-document operations.

Single document operations

• Index
• Content ingest (POST /{index}/_ingest) — JSON metadata plus a raw binary part as multipart/related, for content_extract input_mode: "stream".
• Get
• Delete
• Update

Multi-document operations

• Bulk
• Multi get
• Delete by query
• Update by query
• Reindex
