== Delete By Query API
The delete by query API allows to delete documents from one or more
indices and one or more types based on a <<query-dsl-queries,query>>. Here
is an example:
[source,java]
--------------------------------------------------
import static org.elasticsearch.index.query.FilterBuilders.*;
import static org.elasticsearch.index.query.QueryBuilders.*;
DeleteByQueryResponse response = client.prepareDeleteByQuery("test")
.setQuery(termQuery("_type", "type1"))
.execute()
.actionGet();
--------------------------------------------------
