The scroll_id
value changes in every response. So the next search call needs to use the new scroll id from the previous search response.
You started correctly with
POST <index-name>/_search?scroll=2m
{
"query": {"match_all": {}}
}
In the response you get, a field called _scroll_id
contains the next scroll id to use for the next call (like a cursor), let’s call it scroll_id_1
:
GET /_search/scroll
{
"scroll_id" : "<scroll_id_1>",
"scroll": "2m"
}
In that next response, you get a new _scroll_id
value (let’s call it scroll_id_2
) that you need to use it for the next call:
GET /_search/scroll
{
"scroll_id" : "<scroll_id_2>",
"scroll": "2m"
}
And you keep doing it until you get an empty result set, at which point you can clear the search context
DELETE /_search/scroll
{
"scroll_id" : "<scroll_id_n>"
}
