This commit removes the `prefer_v2_templates` flag and setting. This was a brief setting that
allowed specifying whether V1 or V2 template should be used when an index is created. It has been
removed in favor of V2 templates always having priority.
Relates to #53101Resolves#56528
This is not a breaking change because this flag was never in a released version.
This commit adds a new querystring parameter on the following APIs:
- Index
- Update
- Bulk
- Create Index
- Rollover
These APIs now support a `?prefer_v2_templates=true|false` flag. This flag changes the preference
creation to use either V2 index templates or V1 templates. This flag defaults to `false` and will be
changed to `true` for 8.0+ in subsequent work.
Additionally, setting this flag internally sets the `index.prefer_v2_templates` index-level setting.
This setting is used so that actions that automatically create a new index (things like rollover
initiated by ILM) will inherit the preference from the original index. This setting is dynamic so
that a transition from v1 to v2 templates can occur for long-running indices grouped by an alias
performing periodic rollover.
This also adds support for sending this parameter to the High Level Rest Client.

Several files in the REST APIs nav section are included using
:leveloffset: tags. This increments headings (h2 -> h3, h3 -> h4, etc.)
in those files and removes the :leveloffset: tags.
Other supporting changes:
* Alphabetizes top-level REST API nav items.
* Change 'indices APIs' heading to 'index APIs.'
* Changes 'Snapshot lifecycle management' heading to sentence case.
Moves the following API sections under the REST APIs navigations:
- API Conventions
- Document APIs
- Search APIs
- Index APIs (previously named Indices APIs)
- cat APIs
- Cluster APIs
Other supporting changes:
- Removes the previous index APIs page under REST APIs. Adds a redirect for the removed page.
- Removes several [partintro] macros so the docs build correctly.
- Changes anchors for pages that become sections of a parent page.
- Adds several redirects for existing pages that become sections of a parent page.
This commit re-applies changes from #44238. Changes from that PR were reverted due to broken links in several repos. This commit adds redirects for those broken links.
Add an explanatory NOTE section to draw attention to the difference
between small and capital letters used for the index date patterns.
e.g.: HH vs hh, MM vs mm.
Closes: #22322
(cherry picked from commit c8125417dc33215651f9bb76c9b1ffaf25f41caf)
With this commit we add a note to the API conventions documentation that
all date math expressions are resolved independently of any locale. This
behavior might be puzzling to users that try to specify a different
calendar than a Gregorian calendar.
Closes#37330
Relates #37663
This commit changes the default out-of-the-box configuration for the
number of shards from five to one. We think this will help address a
common problem of oversharding. For users with time-based indices that
need a different default, this can be managed with index templates. For
users with non-time-based indices that find they need to re-shard with
the split API in place they no longer need to resort only to
reindexing.
Since this has the impact of changing the default number of shards used
in REST tests, we want to ensure that we still have coverage for issues
that could arise from multiple shards. As such, we randomize (rarely)
the default number of shards in REST tests to two. This is managed via a
global index template. However, some tests check the templates that are
in the cluster state during the test. Since this template is randomly
there, we need a way for tests to skip adding the template used to set
the number of shards to two. For this we add the default_shards feature
skip. To avoid having to write our docs in a complicated way because
sometimes they might be behind one shard, and sometimes they might be
behind two shards we apply the default_shards feature skip to all docs
tests. That is, these tests will always run with the default number of
shards (one).
The original example resulted in a 400 error due to the example being `-` separated instead of the default `.` separation.
```
failed to parse date field [2001-01-01] with format [YYYY.MM.dd]
```
In SI units, "kilobyte" or "kB" would mean 1000 bytes, whereas "KiB" is
used for 1024. Add a note in `api-conventions.asciidoc` to clarify the
meaning in Elasticsearch.
This commit enforces the requirement of Content-Type for the REST layer and removes the deprecated methods in transport
requests and their usages.
While doing this, it turns out that there are many places where *Entity classes are used from the apache http client
libraries and many of these usages did not specify the content type. The methods that do not specify a content type
explicitly have been added to forbidden apis to prevent more of these from entering our code base.
Relates #19388
This change adds a strict mode for xcontent parsing on the rest layer. The strict mode will be off by default for 5.x and in a separate commit will be enabled by default for 6.0. The strict mode, which can be enabled by setting `http.content_type.required: true` in 5.x, will require that all incoming rest requests have a valid and supported content type header before the request is dispatched. In the non-strict mode, the Content-Type header will be inspected and if it is not present or not valid, we will continue with auto detection of content like we have done previously.
The content type header is parsed to the matching XContentType value with the only exception being for plain text requests. This value is then passed on with the content bytes so that we can reduce the number of places where we need to auto-detect the content type.
As part of this, many transport requests and builders were updated to provide methods that
accepted the XContentType along with the bytes and the methods that would rely on auto-detection have been deprecated.
In the non-strict mode, deprecation warnings are issued whenever a request with body doesn't provide the Content-Type header.

This PR removes all leniency in the conversion of Strings to booleans: "true"
is converted to the boolean value `true`, "false" is converted to the boolean
value `false`. Everything else raises an error.
The example
```
/<logstash-{now/d-2d}>,<logstash-{now/d-1d}>,<logstash-{now/d}>/_search
```
shows escaped URL where `, => %2C`, so I assume it should be escaped and be present in the table
Sends the `error_trace` parameter with all requests sent by the
yaml test framework, including the doc snippet tests. This can be
overridden by settings `error_trace: false`. While this drift's
core's handling of the yaml tests from the client's slightly this
should only be a problem for tests that rely on the default value,
both of which I've fixed by setting the value explicitly.
This also escapes `\n` and `\t` in the `Stash dump on failure` so
the `stack_trace` is more readable.
Also fixes `RestUpdateSettingsAction` to not think of the `error_trace`
parameter as a setting.
The `error_trace` parameter turns on the `stack_trace` field
in errors which returns stack traces.
Removes documentation for `camelCase` because it hasn't worked
in a while....
Documents the internal parameters used to render stack traces as
internal only.
Closes#21708
today it's not possible to use date-math efficiently with the `_rollover`
API. This change adds support for date-math in the target index as well as
support for preserving the math logic when an existing index that was created with
a date math expression all subsequent indices are created with the same expression.
This commit adds the support for exclusion filter to the response filtering (filter_path) feature. It changes the XContentBuilder APIs so that it now accepts two types of filters: inclusive and exclusive. Filters are no more String arrays but sets of String instead.
