# Delete
|
|
|
|
The `DELETE` statement deletes documents that satisfy the predicates in the `WHERE` clause.
|
|
If you don't specify the `WHERE` clause, all documents are deleted.
|
|
|
|

"adjust_pure_negative" : true,
|
|
"boost" : 1.0
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"_source" : false
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Result set:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"schema" : [
|
|
{
|
|
"name" : "deleted_rows",
|
|
"type" : "long"
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"total" : 1,
|
|
"datarows" : [
|
|
[

|
3

|
|
],
|
|
"size" : 1,
|
|
"status" : 200
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
