Hi, I am trying to check a document exist or not using the following code: Me.LowLevelClient.DocumentExists(Of Elasticsearch.Net.StringResponse)(index:=TargetIndexName, id:=DocumentID) But it returns with Body prop empty (it's a successful call (200)). Maybe I did it wrong? Thank you in advanced for your help. ---

Turned out I have to use the: Me.LowLevelClient.Get() Me.LowLevelClient.DocumentExists uses HEAD, which is not what I want. ---
