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.
The search_after parameter provides a way to efficiently paginate from one page to the next. This parameter accepts an array of sort values, those values are then used by the searcher to sort the top hits from the first document that is greater to the sort values.
This parameter must be used in conjunction with the sort parameter, it must contain exactly the same number of values than the number of fields to sort on.
NOTE: A field with one unique value per document should be used as the last element of the sort specification. Otherwise the sort order for documents that have the same sort values would be undefined. The recommended way is to use the field `_uuid` which is certain to contain one unique value for each document.
Fixes#8192
Requesting a million hits, or page 100,000 is always a bad idea, but users
may not be aware of this. This adds a per-index limit on the maximum size +
from that can be requested which defaults to 10,000.
This should not interfere with deep-scrolling.
Closes#9311
