=== API changes
[float]
==== Camel case and underscore parameters deprecated in 6.x have been removed
A number of duplicate parameters deprecated in 6.x have been removed from
Bulk request, Multi Get request, Term Vectors request, and More Like This Query
requests.
The following camel case parameters have been removed:
* `opType`
* `versionType`, `_versionType`
The following parameters starting with underscore have been removed:
* `_parent`
* `_retry_on_conflict`
* `_routing`
* `_version`
* `_version_type`
Instead of these removed parameters, use their non camel case equivalents without
starting underscore, e.g. use `version_type` instead of `_version_type` or `versionType`.
[float]
==== Thread pool info
In previous versions of Elasticsearch, the thread pool info returned in the
<<cluster-nodes-info,nodes info API>> returned `min` and `max` values reflecting
the configured minimum and maximum number of threads that could be in each
thread pool. The trouble with this representation is that it does not align with
the configuration parameters used to configure thread pools. For
<<modules-threadpool,scaling thread pools>>, the minimum number of threads is
configured by a parameter called `core` and the maximum number of threads is
configured by a parameter called `max`. For <<modules-threadpool,fixed thread
pools>>, there is only one configuration parameter along these lines and that
parameter is called `size`, reflecting the fixed number of threads in the
pool. This discrepancy between the API and the configuration parameters has been
rectified. Now, the API will report `core` and `max` for scaling thread pools,
and `size` for fixed thread pools.
Similarly, in the cat thread pool API the existing `size` output has been
renamed to `pool_size` which reflects the number of threads currently in the
pool; the shortcut for this value has been changed from `s` to `psz`. The `min`
output has been renamed to `core` with a shortcut of `cr`, the shortcut for
`max` has been changed to `mx`, and the `size` output with a shortcut of `sz`
has been reused to report the configured number of threads in the pool. This
aligns the output of the API with the configuration values for thread
pools. Note that `core` and `max` will be populated for scaling thread pools,
and `size` will be populated for fixed thread pools.
[float]
==== The parameter `fields` deprecated in 6.x has been removed from Bulk request
and Update request. The Update API returns `400 - Bad request` if request contains
unknown parameters (instead of ignored in the previous version).
[float]
[[remove-suggest-metric]]
==== Remove support for `suggest` metric/index metric in indices stats and nodes stats APIs
Previously, `suggest` stats were folded into `search` stats. Support for the
`suggest` metric on the indices stats and nodes stats APIs remained for
backwards compatibility. Backwards support for the `suggest` metric was
deprecated in 6.3.0 and now removed in 7.0.0.
[[remove-field-caps-body]]
In the past, `fields` could be provided either as a parameter, or as part of the request
body. Specifying `fields` in the request body as opposed to a parameter was deprecated
in 6.4.0, and is now unsupported in 7.0.0.
[float]
==== `copy_settings` is deprecated on shrink and split APIs
Versions of Elasticsearch prior to 6.4.0 did not copy index settings on shrink
and split operations. Starting with Elasticsearch 7.0.0, the default behavior
will be for such settings to be copied on such operations. To enable users in
6.4.0 to transition in 6.4.0 to the default behavior in 7.0.0, the
`copy_settings` parameter was added on the REST layer. As this behavior will be
the only behavior in 8.0.0, this parameter is deprecated in 7.0.0 for removal in
8.0.0.
[float]
==== The deprecated stored script contexts have now been removed
When putting stored scripts, support for storing them with the deprecated `template` context or without a context is
now removed. Scripts must be stored using the `script` context as mentioned in the documentation.
[float]
==== Removed Get Aliases API limitations when {security-features} are enabled
The behavior and response codes of the get aliases API no longer vary
depending on whether {security-features} are enabled. Previously a
404 - NOT FOUND (IndexNotFoundException) could be returned in case the
current user was not authorized for any alias. An empty response with
status 200 - OK is now returned instead at all times.
[float]
==== Put User API response no longer has `user` object
The Put User API response was changed in 6.5.0 to add the `created` field
outside of the user object where it previously had been. In 7.0.0 the user
object has been removed in favor of the top level `created` field.
[float]
==== Source filtering url parameters `_source_include` and `_source_exclude` have been removed
The deprecated in 6.x url parameters are now removed. Use `_source_includes` and `_source_excludes` instead.
[float]
==== Multi Search Request metadata validation
MultiSearchRequests issued through `_msearch` now validate all keys in the metadata section. Previously unknown keys were ignored
while now an exception is thrown.
[float]
==== Deprecated graph endpoints removed
The deprecated graph endpoints (those with `/_graph/_explore`) have been
removed.
[float]
==== Deprecated `_termvector` endpoint removed
The `_termvector` endpoint was deprecated in 2.0 and has now been removed.
The endpoint `_termvectors` (plural) should be used instead.
