* This commit is part of our plan to deprecate and ultimately remove the use of _xpack in the REST APIs.
- REST API docs
- HLRC docs and doc tests
- Handle REST actions with deprecation warnings
- Changed endpoints in rest-api-spec and relevant file names
This commit changes the format of the `hits.total` in the search response to be an object with
a `value` and a `relation`. The `value` indicates the number of hits that match the query and the
`relation` indicates whether the number is accurate (in which case the relation is equals to `eq`)
or a lower bound of the total (in which case it is equals to `gte`).
This change also adds a parameter called `rest_total_hits_as_int` that can be used in the
search APIs to opt out from this change (retrieve the total hits as a number in the rest response).
Note that currently all search responses are accurate (`track_total_hits: true`) or they don't contain
`hits.total` (`track_total_hits: true`). We'll add a way to get a lower bound of the total hits in a
follow up (to allow numbers to be passed to `track_total_hits`).
Relates #33028
This change removes the wrapping of the created field in the put user
response. The created field was added as a top level field in #32332,
while also still being wrapped within the `user` object of the
response. Since the value is available in both formats in 6.x, we can
remove the wrapped version for 7.0.
With features like CCR building on the CCS infrastructure, the settings
prefix search.remote makes less sense as the namespace for these remote
cluster settings than does a more general namespace like
cluster.remote. This commit replaces these settings with cluster.remote
with a fallback to the deprecated settings search.remote.
In case an error is returned when calling search_shards on a remote
cluster, which will lead to throwing an exception in the coordinating
node, we should make sure that the status code returned by the
coordinating node is the same as the one returned by the remote
cluster. Up until now a 500 - Internal Server Error was always
returned. This commit changes this behaviour so that for instance if an
index is not found, which causes an 404, a 404 is also returned by the
coordinating node to the client.
Closes#27461
This commit updates the multi cluster search test with security so that
the user that is simply performing a multi cluster search does not have
any cluster permissions. This is done as none are needed by this user
and excess privileges could mask a behavior change.
Many tests are added with a version check so that they do not run against a
version that doesn't have the feature yet. Master is 7.0, so all tests that
do not run against 6.0+ can be removed and the version check can be removed
on all tests that always run on 6.0+.
