Document APIs

Introduced 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 document
• Get document
• Update document
• Delete document

Multi-document operations

• Bulk
• Streaming bulk
• Multi-get documents
• Update by query
• Delete by query
• Reindex documents

Term vector operations

• Term vector
• Multi term vectors
