Hi guys,

I have an issue with high level rest client. I'm using version 6.7.1 of the client, and every time I build my project I get version version 5.2.2 of **org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch** instead of 6.7.1. This issue is blocking me from deploying my project in WildFly.

```
<dependency>
            <groupId>org.elasticsearch.client</groupId>
            <artifactId>elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client</artifactId>
            <version>6.7.1</version>
 </dependency>

```

Here is the mvn dependency tree for the client.

```
[INFO] +- org.elasticsearch.client:elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client:jar: **6.7.1** :compile
[INFO] | +- org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch:jar: **5.2.2** :compile

[INFO] | | +- org.apache.lucene:lucene-suggest:jar:6.4.1:compile
[INFO] | | +- org.elasticsearch:securesm:jar:1.1:compile

```

As a consequence WildFly throws exceptions

```

Any chance you are using springboot ?

When using springboot with  
elasticsearch, you need to be explicit with some transitive dependencies as SpringBoot declares a version 6.4...

Basically you can put this in your `pom.xml`:

```auto
<properties>
  <elasticsearch.version>7.0.0<elasticsearch.version>
</properties>

```

See documentation here: [https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-build.html#howto-customize-dependency-versions](https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-build.html#howto-customize-dependency-versions)
