Hi Team,
I'm using ElasticSearch ODBC Driver in order to connect my CPP code with ElasticSearch to perform CRUD operations. I can retrieve records from elasticsearch very well. I just want to know why I'm unable update , delete or insert records into elasticsearch. Is their any other driver available other than ElasticSearch ODBC Driver for these operations or anything else. Please help me throughout this.

The Elastic Elasticsearch ODBC driver is [only for querying](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/sql-overview.html). In order to add or modify data you will need to use the REST APIs.
