=== Flush Synced API

[[java-rest-high-flush-synced-request]]
==== Flush Synced Request

A `SyncedFlushRequest` can be applied to one or more indices, or even on `_all` the indices:

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-request]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Flush synced one index
<2> Flush synced multiple indices
<3> Flush synced all the indices

==== Optional arguments

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-request-indicesOptions]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Setting `IndicesOptions` controls how unavailable indices are resolved and
how wildcard expressions are expanded

[[java-rest-high-flush-synced-sync]]
==== Synchronous Execution

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-execute]
--------------------------------------------------

[[java-rest-high-flush-synced-async]]
==== Asynchronous Execution

The asynchronous execution of a flush request requires both the `SyncedFlushRequest`
instance and an `ActionListener` instance to be passed to the asynchronous
method:

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-execute-async]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The `SyncedFlushRequest` to execute and the `ActionListener` to use when
the execution completes

The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once it is
completed the `ActionListener` is called back using the `onResponse` method
if the execution successfully completed or using the `onFailure` method if
it failed.

A typical listener for `SyncedFlushResponse` looks like:

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-execute-listener]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Called when the execution is successfully completed. The response is
provided as an argument
<2> Called in case of failure. The raised exception is provided as an argument

[[java-rest-high-flush-synced-response]]
==== Flush Synced Response

The returned `SyncedFlushResponse` allows to retrieve information about the
executed operation as follows:

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-response]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Total number of shards hit by the flush request
<2> Number of shards where the flush has succeeded
<3> Number of shards where the flush has failed
<4> Name of the index whose results we are about to calculate.
<5> Total number of shards for index mentioned in 4.
<6> Successful shards for index mentioned in 4.
<7> Failed shards for index mentioned in 4.
<8> One of the failed shard ids of the failed index mentioned in 4.
<9> Reason for failure of copies of the shard mentioned in 8.
<10> JSON represented by a Map<String, Object>. Contains shard related information like id, state, version etc.
for the failed shard copies. If the entire shard failed then this returns an empty map.

By default, if the indices were not found, an `ElasticsearchException` will be thrown:

["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[flush-synced-notfound]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Do something if the indices to be flushed were not found
