API Extension Plugins

edit

API extension plugins add new functionality to Elasticsearch by adding new APIs or features, usually to do with search or mapping.

Core API extension plugins

edit

The core API extension plugins are:

Delete by Query: The delete by query plugin adds support for deleting all of the documents (from one or more indices) which match the specified query. It is a replacement for the problematic delete-by-query functionality which has been removed from Elasticsearch core.
