Run a search.

Behaviour flags:

--dry-run — validate all inputs and exit without performing any action

--index string

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

Repeatable: pass --index multiple times to supply more than one value

--[no-]allow-no-indices
A setting that does two separate checks on the index expression. If false, the request returns an error (1) if any wildcard expression (including _all and *) resolves to zero matching indices or (2) if the complete set of resolved indices, aliases or data streams is empty after all expressions are evaluated. If true, index expressions that resolve to no indices are allowed and the request returns an empty result.
--[no-]allow-partial-search-results
If true and there are shard request timeouts or shard failures, the request returns partial results. If false, it returns an error with no partial results. To override the default behavior, you can set the search.default_allow_partial_results cluster setting to false.
--analyzer string
The analyzer to use for the query string. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.
--[no-]analyze-wildcard
If true, wildcard and prefix queries are analyzed. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.
--batched-reduce-size number
The number of shard results that should be reduced at once on the coordinating node. If the potential number of shards in the request can be large, this value should be used as a protection mechanism to reduce the memory overhead per search request.
--[no-]ccs-minimize-roundtrips
If true, network round-trips between the coordinating node and the remote clusters are minimized when running cross-cluster search (CCS) requests.
--default-operator string
The default operator for the query string query: and or or. This parameter can be used only when the q query string parameter is specified.
--df string
The field to use as a default when 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

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.

Repeatable: pass --expand-wildcards multiple times to supply more than one value

--[no-]ignore-throttled
If true, concrete, expanded or aliased indices will be ignored when frozen.
--[no-]ignore-unavailable
If false, the request returns an error if it targets a concrete (non-wildcarded) index, alias, or data stream that is missing, closed, or otherwise unavailable. If true, unavailable concrete targets are silently ignored.
--[no-]include-named-queries-score
If true, the response includes the score contribution from any named queries. This functionality reruns each named query on every hit in a search response. Typically, this adds a small overhead to a request. However, using computationally expensive named queries on a large number of hits may add significant overhead.
--[no-]lenient
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-concurrent-shard-requests number
The number of concurrent shard requests per node that the search runs concurrently. This value should be used to limit the impact of the search on the cluster in order to limit the number of concurrent shard requests.
--preference string
The nodes and shards used for the search. By default, Elasticsearch selects from eligible nodes and shards using adaptive replica selection, accounting for allocation awareness. Valid values are: * _only_local to run the search only on shards on the local node. * _local to, if possible, run the search on shards on the local node, or if not, select shards using the default method. * _only_nodes:<node-id>,<node-id> to run the search on only the specified nodes IDs. If suitable shards exist on more than one selected node, use shards on those nodes using the default method. If none of the specified nodes are available, select shards from any available node using the default method. * _prefer_nodes:<node-id>,<node-id> to if possible, run the search on the specified nodes IDs. If not, select shards using the default method. * _shards:<shard>,<shard> to run the search only on the specified shards. You can combine this value with other preference values. However, the _shards value must come first. For example: _shards:2,3|_local. * <custom-string> (any string that does not start with _) to route searches with the same <custom-string> to the same shards in the same order.
--pre-filter-shard-size number
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 (if date filters are mandatory to match but the shard bounds and the query are disjoint). When unspecified, the pre-filter phase is executed if any of these conditions is met: * The request targets more than 128 shards. * The request targets one or more read-only index. * The primary sort of the query targets an indexed field.
--[no-]request-cache
If true, the caching of search results is enabled for requests where size is 0. It defaults to index level settings.
--routing string

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

Repeatable: pass --routing multiple times to supply more than one value

--scroll string
The period to retain the search context for scrolling. By default, this value cannot exceed 1d (24 hours). You can change this limit by using the search.max_keep_alive cluster-level setting.
--search-type string
Indicates how distributed term frequencies are calculated for relevance scoring.
--suggest-field string
The field to use for suggestions.
--suggest-mode string
The suggest mode. This parameter can be used only when the suggest_field and suggest_text query string parameters are specified.
--suggest-size number
The number of suggestions to return. This parameter can be used only when the suggest_field and suggest_text query string parameters are specified.
--suggest-text string
The source text for which the suggestions should be returned. This parameter can be used only when the suggest_field and suggest_text query string parameters are specified.
--[no-]typed-keys
If true, aggregation and suggester names are be prefixed by their respective types in the response.
--[no-]rest-total-hits-as-int
Indicates whether hits.total should be rendered as an integer or an object in the rest search response.
--source-excludes 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.

Repeatable: pass --source-excludes multiple times to supply more than one value

--[no-]source-exclude-vectors
Whether vectors should be excluded from _source
--source-includes 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.

Repeatable: pass --source-includes multiple times to supply more than one value

--q string
A query in the Lucene query string syntax. Query parameter searches do not support the full Elasticsearch Query DSL but are handy for testing. IMPORTANT: This parameter overrides the query parameter in the request body. If both parameters are specified, documents matching the query request body parameter are not returned.
--aggregations string
Defines the aggregations that are run as part of the search request.
--aggs string
Defines the aggregations that are run as part of the search request.
--collapse string
Collapses search results the values of the specified field.
--[no-]explain
If true, the request returns detailed information about score computation as part of a hit.
--ext string
Configuration of search extensions defined by Elasticsearch plugins.
--from number
The starting document offset, which must be non-negative. By default, you cannot page through more than 10,000 hits using the from and size parameters. To page through more hits, use the search_after parameter.
--highlight string
Specifies the highlighter to use for retrieving highlighted snippets from one or more fields in your search results.
--[no-]track-total-hits
Number of hits matching the query to count accurately. If true, the exact number of hits is returned at the cost of some performance. If false, the response does not include the total number of hits matching the query.
--indices-boost string[]
Boost the _score of documents from specified indices. The boost value is the factor by which scores are multiplied. A boost value greater than 1.0 increases the score. A boost value between 0 and 1.0 decreases the score.
--docvalue-fields string[]
An array of wildcard (*) field patterns. The request returns doc values for field names matching these patterns in the hits.fields property of the response.
--knn string

The approximate kNN search to run.

Repeatable: pass --knn multiple times to supply more than one value

--min-score number
The minimum _score for matching documents. Documents with a lower _score are not included in search results and results collected by aggregations.
--post-filter string
Use the post_filter parameter to filter search results. The search hits are filtered after the aggregations are calculated. A post filter has no impact on the aggregation results.
--[no-]profile
Set to true to return detailed timing information about the execution of individual components in a search request. NOTE: This is a debugging tool and adds significant overhead to search execution.
--query string
The search definition using the Query DSL.
--rescore string

Can be used to improve precision by reordering just the top (for example 100 - 500) documents returned by the query and post_filter phases.

Repeatable: pass --rescore multiple times to supply more than one value

--retriever string
A retriever is a specification to describe top documents returned from a search. A retriever replaces other elements of the search API that also return top documents such as query and knn.
--script-fields string
Retrieve a script evaluation (based on different fields) for each hit.
--search-after string[]
Used to retrieve the next page of hits using a set of sort values from the previous page.
--size number
The number of hits to return, which must not be negative. By default, you cannot page through more than 10,000 hits using the from and size parameters. To page through more hits, use the search_after property.
--slice string
Split a scrolled search into multiple slices that can be consumed independently.
--sort string

A comma-separated list of <field>:<direction> pairs.

Repeatable: pass --sort multiple times to supply more than one value

--[no-]source

The source fields that are returned for matching documents. These fields are returned in the hits._source property of the search response. If the stored_fields property is specified, the _source property defaults to false. Otherwise, it defaults to true.

Repeatable: pass --source multiple times to supply more than one value

--fields string[]
An array of wildcard (*) field patterns. The request returns values for field names matching these patterns in the hits.fields property of the response.
--suggest string
Defines a suggester that provides similar looking terms based on a provided text.
--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 property to each shard handling the request. When possible, let Elasticsearch perform early termination automatically. Avoid specifying this property for requests that target data streams with backing indices across multiple data tiers. If set to 0 (default), the query does not terminate early.
--timeout string
The period of time to wait for a response from each shard. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error. Defaults to no timeout.
--[no-]track-scores
If true, calculate and return document scores, even if the scores are not used for sorting.
--[no-]version
If true, the request returns the document version as part of a hit.
--[no-]seq-no-primary-term
If true, the request returns sequence number and primary term of the last modification of each hit.
--stored-fields string

A comma-separated list of stored fields to return as part of a hit. If no fields are specified, no stored fields are included in the response. If this field is specified, the _source property defaults to false. You can pass _source: true to return both source fields and stored fields in the search response.

Repeatable: pass --stored-fields multiple times to supply more than one value

--pit string
Limit the search to a point in time (PIT). If you provide a PIT, you cannot specify an <index> in the request path.
--runtime-mappings string
One or more runtime fields in the search request. These fields take precedence over mapped fields with the same name.
--stats string[]
The stats groups to associate with the search. Each group maintains a statistics aggregation for its associated searches. You can retrieve these stats using the indices stats API.
--input-file string
path to a JSON file to use as command input
--[no-]dry-run
validate all inputs and exit without performing any action (preview changes without applying them)
--[no-]json

output as JSON
