Limiting pagination?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello,

I wonder if it is possible to put a limit on the from parameter in
pagination requests. For example refuse any paginating searches where the
from is above X? This would be good to protect clusters which otherwise are
easy to bring down.

No, but since you should never expose your clusters to end users directly
you could always impose this limit on the software facade that connects
between your application and the cluster
