Serverless Preview

Elastic Cloud Serverless projects are autoscaled environments, fully managed by Elastic and available on Elastic Cloud.

Availability

  • Preview

    This functionality is in technical preview and is ready for evaluation. Use with caution in production; it is not recommended for mission-critical workloads. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features. Specific Support terms apply.

Serverless interfaces and procedures might differ from classic Elastic Stack deployments.

Stack Preview

The Elastic Stack includes Elastic's core products such as Elasticsearch, Kibana, Logstash, and Beats.

Unless stated otherwise on the page, this functionality is available when your Elastic Stack is deployed on Elastic Cloud Hosted, Elastic Cloud Enterprise, Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes, and self-managed environments.

Auth required Idempotent Scope: global
Shell
elastic stack es simulate ingest --docs <docs> [options]

Simulate data ingestion.

Behaviour flags:

--dry-run — validate all inputs and exit without performing any action

--docs string[] required

Sample documents to test in the pipeline.

Repeatable: pass --docs multiple times to supply more than one value

--pipeline string
The pipeline to use as the default pipeline. This value can be used to override the default pipeline of the index.
--merge-type enum

The mapping merge type if mapping overrides are being provided in mapping_addition. The allowed values are one of index or template. The index option merges mappings the way they would be merged into an existing index. The template option merges mappings the way they would be merged into a template.

Values: index, template

--component-template-substitutions string
A map of component template names to substitute component template definition objects.
--index-template-substitutions string
A map of index template names to substitute index template definition objects.
--mapping-addition string
--pipeline-substitutions string
Pipelines to test. If you don’t specify the pipeline request path parameter, this parameter is required. If you specify both this and the request path parameter, the API only uses the request path parameter.
--index string
The index to simulate ingesting into. This value can be overridden by specifying an index on each document. If you specify this parameter in the request path, it is used for any documents that do not explicitly specify an index argument.
--error-trace
When set to true Elasticsearch will include the full stack trace of errors when they occur.
--filter-path string

Comma-separated list of filters in dot notation which reduce the response returned by Elasticsearch.

Repeatable: pass --filter-path multiple times to supply more than one value

--human
When set to true will return statistics in a format suitable for humans. For example "exists_time": "1h" for humans and "exists_time_in_millis": 3600000 for computers. When disabled the human readable values will be omitted. This makes sense for responses being consumed only by machines.
--pretty
If set to true the returned JSON will be "pretty-formatted". Only use this option for debugging only.
--input-file string
path to a JSON file to use as command input
--dry-run
validate all inputs and exit without performing any action (preview changes without applying them)
--no-validate
skip input validation and send the request as-is
--output-fields string
comma-separated list of fields to include in output (dot-notation supported)
--output-template string
Mustache-like template for custom text output (e.g. "{{id}}: {{name}}")
--json

output as JSON
