i experience an issue where the search returns all versions of a document randomly. Can this be controlled somehow, that i only get the latest version of document.

There's no notion of document versioning that can be returned. Only the last version of a document can be accessed.
Most likely you are not using the same document id for the same document.

Hi David
It sounds positivebut it seems that somewhere during indexing a document we are missing something that shows same document with different versions 1, 2, 4, 6, 9 in our search index.
I see the different versions present in index.
We are reading the data from a json file and updating documents. When i look at the index function it seems we take id as a parameter while indexing.
```
.IndexAsync(nodes, indexName, type, mappedjDocument, id);
```
Is there something particular here you can guess i should look at it for example while debugging ?
Would be great
thanks
Nitin

What is the output of the search request which shows different versions of the same document ?
