=== Validate Query API
[id="{upid}-{api}-request"]
==== Validate Query Request
A +{request}+ requires one or more `indices` on which the query is validated. If no index
is provided the request is executed on all indices.
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The index on which to run the request.
In addition it also needs the query that needs to be validated. The query can be built using the `QueryBuilders` utility class.
The following code snippet builds a sample boolean query.
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-query]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Build the desired query.
<2> Set it to the request.
==== Optional arguments
The following arguments can optionally be provided:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-explain]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The explain parameter can be set to true to get more detailed information about why a query failed
By default, the request is executed on a single shard only, which is randomly selected. The detailed explanation of
the query may depend on which shard is being hit, and therefore may vary from one request to another. So, in case of
query rewrite the `allShards` parameter should be used to get response from all available shards.
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-allShards]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Set the allShards parameter.
When the query is valid, the explanation defaults to the string representation of that query. With rewrite set to true,
the explanation is more detailed showing the actual Lucene query that will be executed
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-request-rewrite]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Set the rewrite parameter.

[id="{upid}-{api}-response"]
==== Validate Query Response
The returned +{response}+ allows to retrieve information about the executed
operation as follows:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests-file}[{api}-response]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Check if the query is valid or not.
<2> Get total number of shards.
<3> Get number of shards that were successful.
<4> Get number of shards that failed.
<5> Get the shard failures as `DefaultShardOperationFailedException`.
<6> Get the index of a failed shard.
<7> Get the shard id of a failed shard.
<8> Get the reason for shard failure.
<9> Get the detailed explanation for the shards (if explain was set to `true`).
<10> Get the index to which a particular explanation belongs.
<11> Get the shard id to which a particular explanation belongs.
<12> Get the actual explanation string.
