I use a paginated search by elasticseach. But the items are duplicated between pages. It is at the bottom of this page and at the top of the other page.
I did like this but it still doesn't work
$aggregations = [
"unique\_id"=\>[
"terms"=\>[
"field"=\>"id"
]
]
];
Is there a way to solve this problem?

Is it happening because you are still indexing new data while going from one page to another?

Is it true if I use it like this?
$aggregations = [
"dedup"=\>[
"terms"=\>[
"field"=\>"id"
]
]
];

So in the next 7.10 version, you will be able to use the new [Point In Time API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.10/point-in-time-api.html).
For now, you can use the scroll API but it does not have the same "flexibility" of the new API as you can just move forward and not backward. See
