⚠️ This client is deprecated ⚠️

As of Enterprise Search version 8.2.0, we are directing users to the new Enterprise Search Node Client and deprecating this client.

Our development effort on this project will be limited to bug fixes. All future enhancements will be focused on the Enterprise Search Node Client.

Thank you! - Elastic

Indexing Documents

This example shows how to use the indexDocuments method:

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const documents = [
  {
    id: 1234,
    title: '5 Tips On Finding A Mentor',
    body:
      'The difference between a budding entrepreneur who merely shows promise and one who is already enjoying some success often comes down to mentoring.',
    url: 'https://www.shopify.com/content/5-tips-on-finding-a-mentor'
  },
  {
    id: 1235,
    title: 'How to Profit from Your Passions',
    body:
      'Want to know the secret to starting a successful business? Find a void and fill it.',
    url: 'https://www.shopify.com/content/how-to-profit-from-your-passions'
  }
]

client
  .indexDocuments(contentSourceKey, documents)
  .then(results => {
    // handle results
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

Destroying Documents

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const documentIds = [1234, 1235]

client
  .destroyDocuments(contentSourceKey, documentIds)
  .then(destroyDocumentsResults => {
    // handle destroy documents results
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

Listing all permissions

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const pageParams = { currentPage: 2, pageSize: 20 } // optional argument

client
  .listAllPermissions(contentSourceKey, pageParams)
  .then(response => {
    // handle response
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

Getting user permissions

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const user = 'enterprise_search' // username

client
  .getUserPermissions(contentSourceKey, user)
  .then(response => {
    // handle response
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

Updating user permissions

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const user = 'enterprise_search' // username
const permissions = { permissions: ['permission1', 'permission2'] } // permissions to assign to the user

client
  .updateUserPermissions(contentSourceKey, user, permissions)
  .then(response => {
    // handle response
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

Adding user permissions

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const user = 'enterprise_search' // username

  .then(response => {
    // handle response
  })
  .catch(error => {
    // handle error
  })

const contentSourceKey = '' // your content source key
const user = 'enterprise_search' // username
const permissions = { permissions: ['permission2'] } //permissions to remove from the user

client
  .removeUserPermissions(contentSourceKey, user, permissions)
  .then(response => {
    // handle response
