Delete an async search

DELETE /_async_search/{id}

If the asynchronous search is still running, it is cancelled. Otherwise, the saved search results are deleted. If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, the deletion of a specific async search is restricted to: the authenticated user that submitted the original search request; users that have the cancel_task cluster privilege.

Authentication

Api key

Authorization: <value>

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

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

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

Basic

Authorization: Basic <credentials>

Bearer

Authorization: Bearer <token>

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