Hello everyone,

I have deployed elastic search on a ubuntu machine, I am making curl calls to push and pull the data back using these calls,

**LOGS**

**Request**

curl -X POST "localhost:9200/twitter1/\_doc/1" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'  
{  
"user" : "kimchy",  
"post\_date" : "2009-11-15T14:12:12",  
"message" : "trying out Elasticsearch"  
}  
' **&&** curl -X GET "localhost:9200/twitter1/\_search" -H 'Content-Type: application/json'

**Response**

{"\_index":"twitter1","\_type":"\_doc","\_id":"1","\_version":1,"result":"created","\_shards":{"total":2,"successful":1,"failed":0},"\_seq\_no":0,"\_primary\_term":1}

{"took":53,"timed\_out":false,"\_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"skipped":0,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":0,"max\_score":null,"hits":}}

As you can see above the although the data has been inserted in the document in first curl call and when I try to pull the data back in the first request I didn't get data but in the second call I get data.

**Question**

- Isn't the POST call a blocking call?
- Why the data is not immediately available?

As explained in [this blog post](https://www.elastic.co/blog/refreshing_news) documents are made searchable periodically. You may therefore need to wait up to the refresh interval (default 1 second) to be able to search for the new data.
