Running 8.2 ECK and want to use 'app search' to make things searchable on our site. (using Kibana to configure)
How should I handle TTL (time-to-live) to only search for relevant data?
what I want
To configure app search to have a TTL on its documents.
Not updated for x time, delete it.
Example
We create a service that will poll a system for its data and PUT it to the api to create searchable documents.
POST /api/as/v1/engines/mysearchablestuff/documents
[
{
"id": "23857a02-334f-dc11-b781-005056a666aa",
"customer_number": "123",
"name": "Happy thing 1",
"active": true,
"account_type": "Association"
},
{
"id": "1b857a02-334f-dc11-b781-005056a666aa",
"customer_number": "46",
"name": "Happy thing 2",
"active": true,
"account_type": "Association"
}
]
After a while one of these might be active=false and then it will stop be exported. This because it's deleted from source system.
How can I say that if a document isn't updated in 5 days it should be deleted as a search document?
I've tried "Index Lifecycle Management" but I might configured it badly. What happened was it deleted the whole indices and then the search was broken.
