Usage Examples

The examples in this section are based on the following Elastic instance:

version: '3.5'
services:
  elastic:
    image: docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.10.0
    ports:
      - 9200:9200
      - 9300:9300
    environment:
      - discovery.type=single-node

with a dataset created by downloading this file, and executing the command:

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -XPOST 'localhost:9200/bank/_bulk?pretty&refresh' --data-binary '@accounts.json'

We can delete the document with id 1, by running the following query:

CALL apoc.es.delete("localhost","bank","_doc","1");

Table 1. Results
