when we use 'from' 'size' ,we find the same document is returned on multi pages, can scroll solve this problem? if scroll\_id can be used by multi user?

See [Request body search | Elasticsearch Guide [8.11] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-request-scroll.html) for a more detailed explanation of scroll.
The part that might be relevant to your problem:
> The results that are returned from a scroll request reflect the state of the index at the time that the initial search request was made, like a snapshot in time. Subsequent changes to documents (index, update or delete) will only affect later search requests.
Hope this helps,
Isabel
