Hi,

Is there any option to perform a search in sync mode ( using elastic JS client) ?

I’ve tried to use ‘await’ and other Jquery work around's but with no luck so far.  
Maybe disable the async option with 3rd party libraries?

Regards,  
Arie.

this is a general javascript question IMO. I wonder if you find a better answer in a different forum. This is specific to elasticsearch your question is very generic.
