Hi Mohsin,

You can find out what item has failed in the bulk response.
You can iterate over the bulk response items and check if they failed.
Like this:
if (bulkResponse.hasFailures) {
for (BulkItemResponse item : bulkResponse.items()) {
if (item.failed()) {
// Do something... Use item#failureMessage() to find the cause
of the failure.
}
}
}

hello all,

i am using Elasticsearch bulk java api to insertion of record from
legacy
db.
i am selecting 100 records per poll and inserting to elasticsearch.
it is working very well and without any error.

but was wondering that what if bulk insertion to elasticsearch fails !

i have seen the api and there is a method for checking that error is
there
or not like

bulkResponse.hasFailures()

so do we have to insert entire bulk request again if there is a failure
or
we can identify that out of entire request these are
the records which were failed.

Thanks in advanced
Mohsin
