Hello,  
Es version: 8.11.1

I'm trying to set the option remove\_binary for the Attachment processor to true since the default one is false by using the RestApi java, but this field is missing in the AttachmentProcessor.Builder.

Maybe I'm missing something or it is not implemented yet ?  
Is there any workaround except a curl request ?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome!

That's a missing part indeed.

I opened [Missing `remove_binary` option in the AttachmentProcessor · Issue #727 · elastic/elasticsearch-java · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-java/issues/727) to track this.

Thanks for the report!

As a workaround, I think you might need to fallback on using the LowLevel client instead... Just for creating the ingest pipeline of course.
