[I know in every scroll request we may get difference scroll id,](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/scroll-id-is-not-changing-while-querying/106202), when I have a list of difference `scroll id`, need clear all of them?

[I see search-scroll api example in elasticsearch guide](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/7.16/java-rest-high-search-scroll.html), just clear recently `scroll id`.

No you only need to clear the last one.
