Pipelines require single-valued agg or a numeric to be returned. If they don't get that, they throw an exception. Unfortunately, this exception text is very confusing to users because it usually arises from pathing "through" multiple terms aggs. The final target is a numeric, but it's the intermediary aggs that cause the problem. This commit adds the current agg name to the exception message so the user knows which "level" is the issue. |

Elasticsearch REST API JSON specification
This repository contains a collection of JSON files which describe the Elasticsearch HTTP API.
Their purpose is to formalize and standardize the API, to facilitate development of libraries and integrations.
Example for the "Create Index" API:
{
"indices.create": {
"documentation": "http://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/indices-create-index.html",
"methods": ["PUT", "POST"],
"url": {
"path": "/{index}",
"paths": ["/{index}"],
"parts": {
"index": {
"type" : "string",
"required" : true,
"description" : "The name of the index"
}
},
"params": {
"timeout": {
"type" : "time",
"description" : "Explicit operation timeout"
}
}
},
"body": {
"description" : "The configuration for the index (`settings` and `mappings`)"
}
}
}
The specification contains:
- The name of the API (
indices.create
), which usually corresponds to the client calls - Link to the documentation at http://elastic.co
- List of HTTP methods for the endpoint
- URL specification: path, parts, parameters
- Whether body is allowed for the endpoint or not and its description
The methods
and url.paths
elements list all possible HTTP methods and URLs for the endpoint;
it is the responsibility of the developer to use this information for a sensible API on the target platform.
