+==== Redaction of potentially sensitive data
 
 When the client raises an `Error` that originated at the HTTP layer, like a `ConnectionError` or `TimeoutError`, a `meta` object is often attached to the error object that includes metadata useful for debugging, like request and response information. Because this can include potentially sensitive data, like authentication secrets in an `Authorization` header, the client takes measures to redact common sources of sensitive data when this metadata is attached and serialized.

-
-The Node.js client can be configured to emit an HTTP header `Accept: application/vnd.elasticsearch+json; compatible-with=7` which signals to Elasticsearch that the client is requesting `7.x` version of request and response bodies. This allows for upgrading from 7.x to 8.x version of Elasticsearch without upgrading everything at once. Elasticsearch should be upgraded first after the compatibility header is configured and clients should be upgraded second. To enable to setting, configure the environment variable `ELASTIC_CLIENT_APIVERSIONING` to `true`.

+The Node.js client can be configured to emit an HTTP header
+`Accept: application/vnd.elasticsearch+json; compatible-with=7`
+which signals to Elasticsearch that the client is requesting
+`7.x` version of request and response bodies. This allows for
+upgrading from 7.x to 8.x version of Elasticsearch without upgrading
+everything at once. Elasticsearch should be upgraded first after
+the compatibility header is configured and clients should be upgraded
+second.
+To enable to setting, configure the environment variable
+`ELASTIC_CLIENT_APIVERSIONING` to `true`.

+
+`@elastic/transport` https://github.com/elastic/elastic-transport-js/releases/tag/v8.4.0[version 8.4.0] introduces enhanced measures for ensuring that request metadata attached to some `Error` objects is redacted.

+
+[discrete]
+===== Drop old typescript definitions
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Medium*
+
+The current TypeScript definitions will be removed from the client, and the new definitions, which contain request and response definitions as well will be shipped by default.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Drop callback-style API
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Large*
+
+Maintaining both API styles is not a problem per se, but it makes error handling more convoluted due to async stack traces.
+Moving to a full-promise API will solve this issue.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+// callback-style api
+client.search({ params }, { options }, (err, result) => {
+ console.log(err || result)
+})
+
+// promise-style api
+client.search({ params }, { options })
+  .then(console.log)
+  .catch(console.log)
+
+// async-style (sugar syntax on top of promises)
+const response = await client.search({ params }, { options })
+console.log(response)
+----
+
+If you are already using the promise-style API, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Remove the current abort API and use the new AbortController standard
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+The old abort API makes sense for callbacks but it's annoying to use with promises
+
+[source,js]
+----
+// callback-style api
+const request = client.search({ params }, { options }, (err, result) => {
+ console.log(err) // RequestAbortedError
+})
+
+request.abort()
+
+// promise-style api
+const promise = client.search({ params }, { options })
+
+promise
+  .then(console.log)
+  .catch(console.log) // RequestAbortedError
+
+promise.abort()
+----
+
+Node v12 has added the standard https://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_class_abortcontroller[`AbortController`] API which is designed to work well with both callbacks and promises.
+[source,js]
+----
+const ac = new AbortController()
+client.search({ params }, { signal: ac.signal })
+  .then(console.log)
+  .catch(console.log) // RequestAbortedError
+
+ac.abort()
+----
+
+[discrete]
+===== Remove the body key from the request
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+Thanks to the new types we are developing now we know exactly where a parameter should go.
+The client API leaks HTTP-related notions in many places, and removing them would definitely improve the DX.
+
+This could be a rather big breaking change, so a double solution could be used during the 8.x lifecycle. (accepting body keys without them being wrapped in the body as well as the current solution).
+
+To convert code from 7.x, you need to remove the `body` parameter in all the endpoints request.
+For instance, this is an example for the `search` endpoint:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+// from
+const response = await client.search({
+  index: 'test',
+  body: {
+    query: {
+      match_all: {}
+    }
+  }
+})
+
+// to
+const response = await client.search({
+  index: 'test',
+  query: {
+    match_all: {}
+  }
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+===== Migrate to new separate transport
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small to none*
+
+The separated transport has been rewritten in TypeScript and has already dropped the callback style API.
+Given that now is separated, most of the Elasticsearch specific concepts have been removed, and the client will likely need to extend parts of it for reintroducing them.
+If you weren't extending the internals of the client, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== The returned value of API calls is the body and not the HTTP related keys
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+The client API leaks HTTP-related notions in many places, and removing them would definitely improve the DX.
+The client will expose a new request-specific option to still get the full response details.
+
+The new behaviour returns the `body` value directly as response.
+If you want to have the 7.x response format, you need to add `meta : true` in the request.
+This will return all the HTTP meta information, including the `body`.
+
+For instance, this is an example for the `search` endpoint:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+// from
+const response = await client.search({
+  index: 'test',
+  body: {
+    query: {
+      match_all: {}
+    }
+  }
+})
+console.log(response) // { body: SearchResponse, statusCode: number, headers: object, warnings: array }
+
+// to
+const response = await client.search({
+  index: 'test',
+  query: {
+    match_all: {}
+  }
+})
+console.log(response) // SearchResponse
+
+// with a bit of TypeScript and JavaScript magic...
+const response = await client.search({
+  index: 'test',
+  query: {
+    match_all: {}
+  }
+}, {
+  meta: true
+})
+console.log(response) // { body: SearchResponse, statusCode: number, headers: object, warnings: array }
+----
+
+[discrete]
+===== Use a weighted connection pool
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small to none*
+
+Move from the current cluster connection pool to a weight-based implementation.
+This new implementation offers better performances and runs less code in the background, the old connection pool can still be used.
+If you weren't extending the internals of the client, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Migrate to the "undici" http client
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small to none*
+
+By default, the HTTP client will no longer be the default Node.js HTTP client, but https://github.com/nodejs/undici[undici] instead.
+Undici is a brand new HTTP client written from scratch, it offers vastly improved performances and has better support for promises.
+Furthermore, it offers comprehensive and predictable error handling. The old HTTP client can still be used.
+If you weren't extending the internals of the client, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Drop support for old camelCased keys
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Medium*
+
+Currently, every path or query parameter could be expressed in both `snake_case` and `camelCase`. Internally the client will convert everything to `snake_case`.
+This was done in an effort to reduce the friction of migrating from the legacy to the new client, but now it no longer makes sense.
+If you are already using `snake_case` keys, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Rename `ssl` option to `tls`
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+People usually refers to this as `tls`, furthermore, internally we use the tls API and Node.js refers to it as tls everywhere.
+[source,js]
+----
+// before
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  ssl: {
+    rejectUnauthorized: false
+  }
+})
+
+// after
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  tls: {
+    rejectUnauthorized: false
+  }
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+===== Remove prototype poisoning protection
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+Prototype poisoning protection is very useful, but it can cause performances issues with big payloads.
+In v8 it will be removed, and the documentation will show how to add it back with a custom serializer.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Remove client extensions API
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Large*
+
+Nowadays the client support the entire Elasticsearch API, and the `transport.request` method can be used if necessary. The client extensions API have no reason to exist.
+[source,js]
+----
+client.extend('utility.index', ({ makeRequest }) => {
+  return function _index (params, options) {
+    // your code
+  }
+})
+
+client.utility.index(...)
+----
+
+If you weren't using client extensions, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Move to TypeScript
+
+*Breaking: No* | *Migration effort: None*
+
+The new separated transport is already written in TypeScript, and it makes sense that the client v8 will be fully written in TypeScript as well.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Move from emitter-like interface to a diagnostic method
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+Currently, the client offers a subset of methods of the `EventEmitter` class, v8 will ship with a `diagnostic` property which will be a proper event emitter.
+[source,js]
+----
+// from
+client.on('request', console.log)
+
+// to
+client.diagnostic.on('request', console.log)
+----
+
+[discrete]
+===== Remove username & password properties from Cloud configuration
+
+*Breaking: Yes* | *Migration effort: Small*
+
+The Cloud configuration does not support ApiKey and Bearer auth, while the `auth` options does.
+There is no need to keep the legacy basic auth support in the cloud configuration.
+[source,js]
+----
+// before
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: {
+    id: '<cloud-id>',
+    username: 'elastic',
+    password: 'changeme'
+  }
+})
+
+// after
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: {
+    id: '<cloud-id>'
+  },
+  auth: {
+    username: 'elastic',
+    password: 'changeme'
+  }
+})
+----
+
+If you are already passing the basic auth options in the `auth` configuration, this won't be a breaking change for you.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Calling `client.close` will reject new requests
+
+Once you call `client.close` every new request after that will be rejected with a `NoLivingConnectionsError`. In-flight requests will be executed normally unless an in-flight request requires a retry, in which case it will be rejected.
+
+[discrete]
+===== Parameters rename
+
+- `ilm.delete_lifecycle`: `policy` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `ilm.get_lifecycle`: `policy` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `ilm.put_lifecycle`: `policy` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `snapshot.cleanup_repository`: `repository` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `snapshot.create_repository`: `repository` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `snapshot.delete_repository`: `repository` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `snapshot.get_repository`: `repository` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+- `snapshot.verify_repository`: `repository` parameter has been renamed to `name`
+
+[discrete]
+===== Removal of snake_cased methods
+
+The v7 client provided snake_cased methods, such as `client.delete_by_query`. This is no longer supported, now only camelCased method are present.
+So `client.delete_by_query` can be accessed with `client.deleteByQuery`

+[[child]]
+=== Creating a child client
+
+There are some use cases where you may need multiple instances of the client. 
+You can easily do that by calling `new Client()` as many times as you need, but 
+you will lose all the benefits of using one single client, such as the long 
+living connections and the connection pool handling. To avoid this problem, the 
+client offers a `child` API, which returns a new client instance that shares the 
+connection pool with the parent client.
+
+NOTE: The event emitter is shared between the parent and the child(ren). If you 
+extend the parent client, the child client will have the same extensions, while 
+if the child client adds an extension, the parent client will not be extended.
+
+You can pass to the `child` every client option you would pass to a normal 
+client, but the connection pool specific options (`ssl`, `agent`, `pingTimeout`, 
+`Connection`, and `resurrectStrategy`).
+
+CAUTION: If you call `close` in any of the parent/child clients, every client 
+will be closed.

+[[auth-ec]]
+==== Elastic Cloud
+
+If you are using https://www.elastic.co/cloud[Elastic Cloud], the client offers
+an easy way to connect to it via the `cloud` option. You must pass the Cloud ID
+that you can find in the cloud console, then your username and password inside
+the `auth` option.
+
+NOTE: When connecting to Elastic Cloud, the client will automatically enable
+both request and response compression by default, since it yields significant
+throughput improvements. Moreover, the client will also set the tls option
+`secureProtocol` to `TLSv1_2_method` unless specified otherwise. You can still
+override this option by configuring them.
+
+IMPORTANT: Do not enable sniffing when using Elastic Cloud, since the nodes are
+behind a load balancer, Elastic Cloud will take care of everything for you.
+Take a look https://www.elastic.co/blog/elasticsearch-sniffing-best-practices-what-when-why-how[here]
+to know more.

+[[connect-self-managed-new]]
+=== Connecting to a self-managed cluster
+
+By default {es} will start with security features like authentication and TLS
+enabled. To connect to the {es} cluster you'll need to configure the Node.js {es}
+client to use HTTPS with the generated CA certificate in order to make requests
+successfully.
+
+If you're just getting started with {es} we recommend reading the documentation
+on https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/settings.html[configuring]
+and
+https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/starting-elasticsearch.html[starting {es}]
+to ensure your cluster is running as expected.
+
+When you start {es} for the first time you'll see a distinct block like the one
+below in the output from {es} (you may have to scroll up if it's been a while):
+
+[source,sh]
+----
+
+-> Elasticsearch security features have been automatically configured!
+-> Authentication is enabled and cluster connections are encrypted.

+...
+
+----
+
+Depending on the circumstances there are two options for verifying the HTTPS
+connection, either verifying with the CA certificate itself or via the HTTP CA
+certificate fingerprint.
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-tls]]
+==== TLS configuration
+
+The generated root CA certificate can be found in the `certs` directory in your
+{es} config location (`$ES_CONF_PATH/certs/http_ca.crt`). If you're running {es}
+in Docker there is
+https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docker.html[additional documentation for retrieving the CA certificate].
+
+Without any additional configuration you can specify `https://` node urls, and
+the certificates used to sign these requests will be verified. To turn off
+certificate verification, you must specify an `tls` object in the top level
+config and set `rejectUnauthorized: false`. The default `tls` values are the
+same that Node.js's https://nodejs.org/api/tls.html#tls_tls_connect_options_callback[`tls.connect()`]
+uses.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  auth: {
+    username: 'elastic',
+    password: 'changeme'
+  },
+  tls: {
+    ca: fs.readFileSync('./http_ca.crt'),
+    rejectUnauthorized: false
+  }
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-ca-fingerprint]]
+==== CA fingerprint
+
+You can configure the client to only trust certificates that are signed by a specific CA certificate
+(CA certificate pinning) by providing a `caFingerprint` option.
+This will verify that the fingerprint of the CA certificate that has signed
+the certificate of the server matches the supplied value.
+You must configure a SHA256 digest.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://example.com'
+  auth: { ... },
+  // the fingerprint (SHA256) of the CA certificate that is used to sign
+  // the certificate that the Elasticsearch node presents for TLS.
+  caFingerprint: '20:0D:CA:FA:76:...',
+  tls: {
+    // might be required if it's a self-signed certificate
+    rejectUnauthorized: false
+  }
+})
+----
+
+The certificate fingerprint can be calculated using `openssl x509` with the
+certificate file:
+
+[source,sh]
+----
+openssl x509 -fingerprint -sha256 -noout -in /path/to/http_ca.crt
+----
+
+If you don't have access to the generated CA file from {es} you can use the
+following script to output the root CA fingerprint of the {es} instance with
+`openssl s_client`:
+
+[source,sh]
+----
+# Replace the values of 'localhost' and '9200' to the
+# corresponding host and port values for the cluster.
+openssl s_client -connect localhost:9200 -servername localhost -showcerts </dev/null 2>/dev/null \
+  | openssl x509 -fingerprint -sha256 -noout -in /dev/stdin
+----
+
+The output of `openssl x509` will look something like this:
+

+=== Connecting without security enabled
+
+WARNING: Running {es} without security enabled is not recommended.
+
+If your cluster is configured with
+https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-settings.html[security explicitly disabled]
+then you can connect via HTTP:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://example.com'
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-strategies]]
+=== Authentication strategies
+
+Following you can find all the supported authentication strategies.
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-apikey]]
+==== ApiKey authentication
+
+You can use the
+{ref-7x}/security-api-create-api-key.html[ApiKey]
+authentication by passing the `apiKey` parameter via the `auth` option. The
+`apiKey` parameter can be either a base64 encoded string or an object with the
+values that you can obtain from the
+{ref-7x}/security-api-create-api-key.html[create api key endpoint].
+
+NOTE: If you provide both basic authentication credentials and the ApiKey
+configuration, the ApiKey takes precedence.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  auth: {
+    apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey'
+  }
+})
+----
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  auth: {
+    apiKey: {
+      id: 'foo',
+      api_key: 'bar'
+    }
+  }
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-bearer]]
+==== Bearer authentication
+
+You can provide your credentials by passing the `bearer` token
+parameter via the `auth` option.
+Useful for https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-api-create-service-token.html[service account tokens].
+Be aware that it does not handle automatic token refresh.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  auth: {
+    bearer: 'token'
+  }
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+[[auth-basic]]
+==== Basic authentication
+
+You can provide your credentials by passing the `username` and `password`
+parameters via the `auth` option.
+
+NOTE: If you provide both basic authentication credentials and the Api Key
+configuration, the Api Key will take precedence.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://localhost:9200',
+  auth: {
+    username: 'elastic',
+    password: 'changeme'
+  }
+})
+----
+
+
+Otherwise, you can provide your credentials in the node(s) URL.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://username:password@localhost:9200'
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+[[client-usage]]
+=== Usage
+
+Using the client is straightforward, it supports all the public APIs of {es},
+and every method exposes the same signature.
+
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+
+const result = await client.search({
+  index: 'my-index',
+  query: {
+    match: { hello: 'world' }
+  }
+})
+----
+
+The returned value of every API call is the response body from {es}.
+If you need to access additonal metadata, such as the status code or headers,
+you must specify `meta: true` in the request options:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+
+const result = await client.search({
+  index: 'my-index',
+  query: {
+    match: { hello: 'world' }
+  }
+}, { meta: true })
+----
+
+In this case, the result will be:
+[source,ts]
+----
+{
+  body: object | boolean
+  statusCode: number
+  headers: object
+  warnings: string[],
+  meta: object
+}
+----
+
+NOTE: The body is a boolean value when you use `HEAD` APIs.
+
+[discrete]
+==== Aborting a request
+
+If needed, you can abort a running request by using the `AbortController` standard.
+
+CAUTION: If you abort a request, the request will fail with a
+`RequestAbortedError`.
+
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const AbortController = require('node-abort-controller')
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+
+const abortController = new AbortController()
+setImmediate(() => abortController.abort())
+
+const result = await client.search({
+  index: 'my-index',
+  query: {
+    match: { hello: 'world' }
+  }
+}, { signal: abortController.signal })
+----
+
+[discrete]
+==== Request specific options
+
+If needed you can pass request specific options in a second object:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const result = await client.search({
+  index: 'my-index',
+  body: {
+    query: {
+      match: { hello: 'world' }
+    }
+  }
+}, {
+  ignore: [404],
+  maxRetries: 3
+})
+----
+
+
+The supported request specific options are:

+_Default_: `false`
+
+|`redaction`
+|`object` - Options for redacting potentially sensitive data from error metadata. See <<redaction>>.
+
+|`retryBackoff`
+|`(min: number, max: number, attempt: number) => number;` - A function that calculates how long to sleep, in seconds, before the next request retry +
+_Default:_ A built-in function that uses exponential backoff with jitter.

+=== Using the Client in a Function-as-a-Service Environment
+
+This section illustrates the best practices for leveraging the {es} client in a Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) environment.
+The most influential optimization is to initialize the client outside of the function, the global scope.
+This practice does not only improve performance but also enables background functionality as – for example – https://www.elastic.co/blog/elasticsearch-sniffing-best-practices-what-when-why-how[sniffing].
+The following examples provide a skeleton for the best practices.

+[[client-connect-proxy]]
+=== Connecting through a proxy
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.10.0`~
+
+If you need to pass through an http(s) proxy for connecting to {es}, the client
+out of the box offers a handy configuration for helping you with it. Under the
+hood, it uses the https://github.com/delvedor/hpagent[`hpagent`] module.
+
+IMPORTANT: In versions 8.0+ of the client, the default `Connection` type is set to `UndiciConnection`, which does not support proxy configurations.
+To use a proxy, you will need to use the `HttpConnection` class from `@elastic/transport` instead.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+import { HttpConnection } from '@elastic/transport'
+
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200',
+  proxy: 'http://localhost:8080',
+  Connection: HttpConnection,
+})
+----
+
+Basic authentication is supported as well:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200',
+  proxy: 'http:user:pwd@//localhost:8080',
+  Connection: HttpConnection,
+})
+----
+
+If you are connecting through a non-http(s) proxy, such as a `socks5` or `pac`,
+you can use the `agent` option to configure it.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const SocksProxyAgent = require('socks-proxy-agent')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200',
+  agent () {
+    return new SocksProxyAgent('socks://127.0.0.1:1080')
+  },
+  Connection: HttpConnection,
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+[[client-error-handling]]
+=== Error handling
+
+The client exposes a variety of error objects that you can use to enhance your
+error handling. You can find all the error objects inside the `errors` key in
+the client.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { errors } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+console.log(errors)
+----
+
+
+You can find the errors exported by the client in the table below.
+
+[cols=3*]
+|===
+|*Error*
+|*Description*
+|*Properties*
+
+|`ElasticsearchClientError`
+|Every error inherits from this class, it is the basic error generated by the client.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+
+|`TimeoutError`
+|Generated when a request exceeds the `requestTimeout` option.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `meta` - `object`, contains all the information about the request
+
+|`ConnectionError`
+|Generated when an error occurs during the request, it can be a connection error or a malformed stream of data.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `meta` - `object`, contains all the information about the request
+
+|`RequestAbortedError`
+|Generated if the user calls the `request.abort()` method.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `meta` - `object`, contains all the information about the request
+
+|`NoLivingConnectionsError`
+|Given the configuration, the ConnectionPool was not able to find a usable Connection for this request.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `meta` - `object`, contains all the information about the request
+
+|`SerializationError`
+|Generated if the serialization fails.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `data` - `object`, the object to serialize
+
+|`DeserializationError`
+|Generated if the deserialization fails.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `data` - `string`, the string to deserialize
+
+|`ConfigurationError`
+|Generated if there is a malformed configuration or parameter.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+
+|`ResponseError`
+|Generated when in case of a `4xx` or `5xx` response.
+a|* `name` - `string`
+* `message` - `string`
+* `meta` - `object`, contains all the information about the request
+* `body` - `object`, the response body
+* `statusCode` - `object`, the response headers
+* `headers` - `object`, the response status code
+|===
+
+[[keep-alive]]
+[discrete]
+=== Keep-alive connections
+
+By default, the client uses persistent, keep-alive connections to reduce the overhead of creating a new HTTP connection for each Elasticsearch request.
+If you are using the default `UndiciConnection` connection class, it maintains a pool of 256 connections with a keep-alive of 10 minutes.
+If you are using the legacy `HttpConnection` connection class, it maintains a pool of 256 connections with a keep-alive of 1 minute.
+
+If you need to disable keep-alive connections, you can override the HTTP agent with your preferred https://nodejs.org/api/http.html#http_new_agent_options[HTTP agent options]:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200',
+  // the function takes as parameter the option
+  // object passed to the Connection constructor
+  agent: (opts) => new CustomAgent()
+})
+----
+
+Or you can disable the HTTP agent entirely:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200',
+  // Disable agent and keep-alive
+  agent: false
+})
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[close-connections]]
+=== Closing a client's connections
+
+If you would like to close all open connections being managed by an instance of the client, use the `close()` function:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'http://localhost:9200'
+});
+client.close();
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[product-check]]
+=== Automatic product check
+
+Since v7.14.0, the client performs a required product check before the first call.
+This pre-flight product check allows the client to establish the version of Elasticsearch
+that it is communicating with. The product check requires one additional HTTP request to
+be sent to the server as part of the request pipeline before the main API call is sent.
+In most cases, this will succeed during the very first API call that the client sends.
+Once the product check completes, no further product check HTTP requests are sent for
+subsequent API calls.

+== Getting started
+
+This page guides you through the installation process of the Node.js client,
+shows you how to instantiate the client, and how to perform basic Elasticsearch 
+operations with it.
+
+[discrete]
+=== Requirements
+
+* https://nodejs.org/[Node.js] version 14.x or newer
+* https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm[`npm`], usually bundled with Node.js
+
+[discrete]
+=== Installation 
+
+To install the latest version of the client, run the following command:
+
+[source,shell]
+--------------------------
+npm install @elastic/elasticsearch
+--------------------------
+
+Refer to the <<installation>> page to learn more.
+
+
+[discrete]
+=== Connecting
+
+You can connect to the Elastic Cloud using an API key and the Elasticsearch 
+endpoint. 
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+const client = new Client({
+  node: 'https://...', // Elasticsearch endpoint
+  auth: {
+    apiKey: { // API key ID and secret
+      id: 'foo',
+      api_key: 'bar',
+    }
+  }
+})
+----
+
+Your Elasticsearch endpoint can be found on the **My deployment** page of your 
+deployment:
+
+image::images/es-endpoint.jpg[alt="Finding Elasticsearch endpoint",align="center"]
+
+You can generate an API key on the **Management** page under Security.
+
+image::images/create-api-key.png[alt="Create API key",align="center"]
+
+For other connection options, refer to the <<client-connecting>> section.
+
+
+[discrete]
+=== Operations
+
+Time to use Elasticsearch! This section walks you through the basic, and most 
+important, operations of Elasticsearch.
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Creating an index
+
+This is how you create the `my_index` index:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.indices.create({ index: 'my_index' })
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Indexing documents
+
+This is a simple way of indexing a document:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.index({
+  index: 'my_index',
+  id: 'my_document_id',
+  document: {
+    foo: 'foo',
+    bar: 'bar',
+  },
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Getting documents
+
+You can get documents by using the following code:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.get({
+  index: 'my_index',
+  id: 'my_document_id',
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Searching documents
+
+This is how you can create a single match query with the client: 
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.search({
+  query: {
+    match: {
+      foo: 'foo'
+    }
+  }
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Updating documents
+
+This is how you can update a document, for example to add a new field:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.update({
+  index: 'my_index',
+  id: 'my_document_id',
+  doc: {
+    foo: 'bar',
+    new_field: 'new value'
+  }
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Deleting documents
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.delete({
+  index: 'my_index',
+  id: 'my_document_id',
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Deleting an index
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.indices.delete({ index: 'my_index' })
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+== Further reading
+
+* Use <<client-helpers>> for a more comfortable experience with the APIs.
+* For an elaborate example of how to ingest data into Elastic Cloud, 
+refer to {cloud}/ec-getting-started-node-js.html[this page].

+== Client helpers
+
+The client comes with an handy collection of helpers to give you a more
+comfortable experience with some APIs.
+
+CAUTION: The client helpers are experimental, and the API may change in the next
+minor releases. The helpers will not work in any Node.js version lower than 10.
+
+
+[discrete]
+[[bulk-helper]]
+=== Bulk helper
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.7.0`~
+
+Running bulk requests can be complex due to the shape of the API, this helper
+aims to provide a nicer developer experience around the Bulk API.
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Usage
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { createReadStream } = require('fs')
+const split = require('split2')
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+const result = await client.helpers.bulk({
+  datasource: createReadStream('./dataset.ndjson').pipe(split()),
+  onDocument (doc) {
+    return {
+      index: { _index: 'my-index' }
+    }
+  }
+})
+
+console.log(result)
+// {
+//   total: number,
+//   failed: number,
+//   retry: number,
+//   successful: number,
+//   time: number,
+//   bytes: number,
+//   aborted: boolean
+// }
+----
+
+To create a new instance of the Bulk helper, access it as shown in the example
+above, the configuration options are:
+[cols=2*]
+|===
+|`datasource`
+a|An array, async generator or a readable stream with the data you need to index/create/update/delete.
+It can be an array of strings or objects, but also a stream of json strings or JavaScript objects. +
+If it is a stream, we recommend to use the https://www.npmjs.com/package/split2[`split2`] package, that splits the stream on new lines delimiters. +
+This parameter is mandatory.
+[source,js]
+----
+const { createReadStream } = require('fs')
+const split = require('split2')
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  // if you just use split(), the data will be used as array of strings
+  datasource: createReadStream('./dataset.ndjson').pipe(split())

+  datasource: createReadStream('./dataset.ndjson').pipe(split(JSON.parse))
+})
+----
+
+|`onDocument`
+a|A function that is called for each document of the datasource. Inside this function you can manipulate the document and you must return the operation you want to execute with the document. Look at the link:{ref}/docs-bulk.html[Bulk API documentation] to see the supported operations. +
+This parameter is mandatory.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({

+  }
+})
+----
+
+|`onDrop`
+a|A function that is called for everytime a document can't be indexed and it has reached the maximum amount of retries.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  onDrop (doc) {
+    console.log(doc)
+  }
+})
+----
+
+|`onSuccess`
+a|A function that is called for each successful operation in the bulk request, which includes the result from Elasticsearch along with the original document that was sent, or `null` for delete operations.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  onSuccess ({ result, document }) {
+    console.log(`SUCCESS: Document ${result.index._id} indexed to ${result.index._index}`)
+  }
+})
+----
+
+|`flushBytes`
+a|The size of the bulk body in bytes to reach before to send it. Default of 5MB. +
+_Default:_ `5000000`
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  flushBytes: 1000000
+})
+----
+
+|`flushInterval`
+a|How much time (in milliseconds) the helper waits before flushing the body from the last document read. +
+_Default:_ `30000`
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  flushInterval: 30000
+})
+----
+
+|`concurrency`
+a|How many request is executed at the same time. +
+_Default:_ `5`
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  concurrency: 10
+})
+----
+
+|`retries`
+a|How many times a document is retried before to call the `onDrop` callback. +
+_Default:_ Client max retries.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  retries: 3
+})
+----
+
+|`wait`
+a|How much time to wait before retries in milliseconds. +
+_Default:_ 5000.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  wait: 3000
+})
+----
+
+|`refreshOnCompletion`
+a|If `true`, at the end of the bulk operation it runs a refresh on all indices or on the specified indices. +
+_Default:_ false.
+[source,js]
+----
+const b = client.helpers.bulk({
+  refreshOnCompletion: true
+  // or
+  refreshOnCompletion: 'index-name'
+})

+    }
+  }
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Abort a bulk operation
+
+If needed, you can abort a bulk operation at any time. The bulk helper returns a
+https://promisesaplus.com/[thenable], which has an `abort` method.
+
+NOTE: The abort method stops the execution of the bulk operation, but if you
+are using a concurrency higher than one, the operations that are already running
+will not be stopped.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { createReadStream } = require('fs')

+  onDrop (doc) {
+    b.abort()
+  }
+})
+
+console.log(await b)
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Passing custom options to the Bulk API
+
+You can pass any option supported by the link:
+{ref}/docs-bulk.html#docs-bulk-api-query-params[Bulk API] to the helper, and the
+helper uses those options in conjunction with the Bulk API call.
+
+[source,js]

+})
+
+console.log(result)
+----
+
+[discrete]
+==== Modifying a document before operation
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v8.8.2`~
+
+If you need to modify documents in your datasource before it is sent to Elasticsearch, you can return an array in the `onDocument` function rather than an operation object. The first item in the array must be the operation object, and the second item must be the document or partial document object as you'd like it to be sent to Elasticsearch.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }

+    ]
+  }
+})
+
+console.log(result)
+----
+
+[discrete]
+[[multi-search-helper]]
+=== Multi search helper
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.8.0`~
+
+If you send search request at a high rate, this helper might be useful
+for you. It uses the multi search API under the hood to batch the requests
+and improve the overall performances of your application. The `result` exposes a
+`documents` property as well, which allows you to access directly the hits
+sources.
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Usage
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+const m = client.helpers.msearch()
+
+m.search(
+    { index: 'stackoverflow' },
+    { query: { match: { title: 'javascript' } } }
+  )
+  .then(result => console.log(result.body)) // or result.documents
+  .catch(err => console.error(err))
+----
+
+To create a new instance of the multi search (msearch) helper, you should access
+it as shown in the example above, the configuration options are:
+[cols=2*]
+|===
+|`operations`
+a|How many search operations should be sent in a single msearch request. +
+_Default:_ `5`
+[source,js]
+----
+const m = client.helpers.msearch({
+  operations: 10
+})
+----
+
+|`flushInterval`
+a|How much time (in milliseconds) the helper waits before flushing the operations from the last operation read. +
+_Default:_ `500`
+[source,js]
+----
+const m = client.helpers.msearch({
+  flushInterval: 500
+})
+----
+
+|`concurrency`
+a|How many request is executed at the same time. +
+_Default:_ `5`
+[source,js]
+----
+const m = client.helpers.msearch({
+  concurrency: 10
+})
+----
+
+|`retries`
+a|How many times an operation is retried before to resolve the request. An operation is retried only in case of a 429 error. +
+_Default:_ Client max retries.
+[source,js]
+----
+const m = client.helpers.msearch({
+  retries: 3
+})
+----
+
+|`wait`
+a|How much time to wait before retries in milliseconds. +
+_Default:_ 5000.
+[source,js]
+----
+const m = client.helpers.msearch({
+  wait: 3000
+})
+----
+
+|===
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Stopping the msearch helper
+
+If needed, you can stop an msearch processor at any time. The msearch helper
+returns a https://promisesaplus.com/[thenable], which has an `stop` method.
+
+If you are creating multiple msearch helpers instances and using them for a
+limitied period of time, remember to always use the `stop` method once you have
+finished using them, otherwise your application will start leaking memory.
+
+The `stop` method accepts an optional error, that will be dispatched every
+subsequent search request.
+
+NOTE: The stop method stops the execution of the msearch processor, but if
+you are using a concurrency higher than one, the operations that are already
+running will not be stopped.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const { Client } = require('@elastic/elasticsearch')
+
+const client = new Client({
+  cloud: { id: '<cloud-id>' },
+  auth: { apiKey: 'base64EncodedKey' }
+})
+const m = client.helpers.msearch()
+

+=== Search helper
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.7.0`~
+
+A simple wrapper around the search API. Instead of returning the entire `result`
+object it returns only the search documents source. For improving the
+performances, this helper automatically adds `filter_path=hits.hits._source` to
+the query string.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const documents = await client.helpers.search({
+  index: 'stackoverflow',
+  query: {
+    match: {
+      title: 'javascript'

+
+
+[discrete]
+[[scroll-search-helper]]
+=== Scroll search helper
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.7.0`~
+
+This helpers offers a simple and intuitive way to use the scroll search API.
+Once called, it returns an
+https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/async_function[async iterator]
+which can be used in conjuction with a for-await...of. It handles automatically
+the `429` error and uses the `maxRetries` option of the client.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const scrollSearch = client.helpers.scrollSearch({
+  index: 'stackoverflow',
+  query: {
+    match: {
+      title: 'javascript'
+    }
+  }
+})
+
+for await (const result of scrollSearch) {
+  console.log(result)
+}
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Clear a scroll search
+
+If needed, you can clear a scroll search by calling `result.clear()`:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+for await (const result of scrollSearch) {
+  if (condition) {
+    await result.clear()
+  }
+}
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Quickly getting the documents
+
+If you only need the documents from the result of a scroll search, you can
+access them via `result.documents`:
+
+[source,js]
+----
+for await (const result of scrollSearch) {
+  console.log(result.documents)
+}
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+[[scroll-documents-helper]]
+=== Scroll documents helper
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v7.7.0`~
+
+It works in the same way as the scroll search helper, but it returns only the
+documents instead. Note, every loop cycle returns a single document, and you
+can't use the `clear` method. For improving the performances, this helper
+automatically adds `filter_path=hits.hits._source` to the query string.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+const scrollSearch = client.helpers.scrollDocuments({
+  index: 'stackoverflow',
+  query: {
+    match: {
+      title: 'javascript'

+[[esql-helper]]
+=== ES|QL helper
+
+ES|QL queries can return their results in {ref}/esql-rest.html#esql-rest-format[several formats].
+The default JSON format returned by ES|QL queries contains arrays of values
+for each row, with column names and types returned separately:
+
+[discrete]
+==== Usage
+
+[discrete]
+===== `toRecords`
+
+~Added~ ~in~ ~`v8.14.0`~
+
+The default JSON format returned by ES|QL queries contains arrays of values
+for each row, with column names and types returned separately:
+
+[source,json]
+----
+{
+  "columns": [
+    { "name": "@timestamp", "type": "date" },
+    { "name": "client_ip", "type": "ip" },
+    { "name": "event_duration", "type": "long" },
+    { "name": "message", "type": "keyword" }
+  ],
+  "values": [
+    [

+      3450233,
+      "Connected to 10.1.0.3"
+    ],
+    [
+      "2023-10-23T12:27:28.948Z",
+      "172.21.2.113",
+      2764889,
+      "Connected to 10.1.0.2"
+    ]
+  ]
+}
+----
+
+In many cases, it's preferable to operate on an array of objects, one object per row,
+rather than an array of arrays. The ES|QL `toRecords` helper converts row data into objects.
+
+[source,js]
+----
+await client.helpers
+  .esql({ query: 'FROM sample_data | LIMIT 2' })
+  .toRecords()
+// =>
+// {
+//   "columns": [
+//     { "name": "@timestamp", "type": "date" },
+//     { "name": "client_ip", "type": "ip" },
+//     { "name": "event_duration", "type": "long" },
+//     { "name": "message", "type": "keyword" }
+//   ],
+//   "records": [
+//     {
+//       "@timestamp": "2023-10-23T12:15:03.360Z",
+//       "client_ip": "172.21.2.162",
+//       "event_duration": 3450233,
+//       "message": "Connected to 10.1.0.3"
+//     },
+//     {
+//       "@timestamp": "2023-10-23T12:27:28.948Z",
+//       "client_ip": "172.21.2.113",
+//       "event_duration": 2764889,
+//       "message": "Connected to 10.1.0.2"
+//     },
+//   ]
+// }
+----
+
+In TypeScript, you can declare the type that `toRecords` returns:
+
+[source,ts]
+----
+type EventLog = {

+ES|QL can return results in multiple binary formats, including https://arrow.apache.org/[Apache Arrow]'s streaming format. Because it is a very efficient format to read, it can be valuable for performing high-performance in-memory analytics. And, because the response is streamed as batches of records, it can be used to produce aggregations and other calculations on larger-than-memory data sets.
+
+`toArrowReader` returns a https://arrow.apache.org/docs/js/classes/Arrow_dom.RecordBatchReader.html[`RecordBatchStreamReader`].

+== Installation
+
+This page guides you through the installation process of the client.
+
+To install the latest version of the client, run the following command:
+
+[source,sh]
+----
+npm install @elastic/elasticsearch
+----
+
+To install a specific major version of the client, run the following command:
+
+[source,sh]
+----
+npm install @elastic/elasticsearch@<major>
+----
+
+To learn more about the supported major versions, please refer to the
+<<js-compatibility-matrix>>.
+
+[discrete]
+[[nodejs-support]]
+=== Node.js support
+
+NOTE: The minimum supported version of Node.js is `v18`.
+
+The client versioning follows the {stack} versioning, this means that
+major, minor, and patch releases are done following a precise schedule that
+often does not coincide with the https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/[Node.js release] times.
+
+To avoid support insecure and unsupported versions of Node.js, the
+client *will drop the support of EOL versions of Node.js between minor releases*.
+Typically, as soon as a Node.js version goes into EOL, the client will continue
+to support that version for at least another minor release. If you are using the client
+with a version of Node.js that will be unsupported soon, you will see a warning
+in your logs (the client will start logging the warning with two minors in advance).
+
+Unless you are *always* using a supported version of Node.js,
+we recommend defining the client dependency in your
+`package.json` with the `~` instead of `^`. In this way, you will lock the
+dependency on the minor release and not the major. (for example, `~7.10.0` instead
+of `^7.10.0`).

+=== Compatibility matrix
+
+Language clients are forward compatible; meaning that clients support
+communicating with greater or equal minor versions of {es} without breaking. It
+does not mean that the client automatically supports new features of newer {es} 
+versions; it is only possible after a release of a new client version. For
+example, a 8.12 client version won't automatically support the new features of
+the 8.13 version of {es}, the 8.13 client version is required for that.
+{es} language clients are only backwards compatible with default distributions
+and without guarantees made.

+WARNING: There is no official support for the browser environment. It exposes

+recommend you to write a lightweight proxy that uses this client instead,
+you can see a proxy example https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-js/tree/master/docs/examples/proxy[here].
