I'm implementing a pagenation with an ElasticSearch over 10,000 documents.
It is possible to bring the search results before and after the search by after\_search.
But I would like to create a function to bring from a specific point like from - to usage under 10,000 documents.
Is there any way I can refer to it?
Thanks

Not sure I understand the problem. If you have less than 10000 documents, you can use:
- the [`size` and `from` parameters](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-from-size.html) to display by default up to 10000 records to your users. If you want to change this limit, you can change `index.max_result_window` setting but be aware of the consequences (ie memory).
- the [search after](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-search-after.html) feature to do deep pagination.
- the [Scroll API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-scroll.html) if you want to extract a resultset to be consumed by another tool later.
