I need to use the \_msearch endpoint without passing a file, just data.

So I tried:

curl -XGET localhost:9200/myindex/\_msearch --data-binary '{"query" : {"match\_all" : {}}}'

And I get the error:

{"error":"ActionRequestValidationException[Validation Failed: 1: no requests added;]","status":500}

This doesn't work either.

curl -XGET localhost:9200/myindex/\_msearch --data '{"query" : {"match\_all" : {}}}'

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think you need to add a \n after each request.
