setFrom() method of SearchRequestBuilder class only accepts a int value

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

setFrom() method of SearchRequestBuilder class only accept a int value, so if i have to fetch record which is greater than a int value (2147483647) for example -

SearchRequestBuilder.setFrom(21474836478)

The above value is not accepted as it is greater than maximum integer value.

So is it possible to pass Long as a parameter in setFrom() as parameter or is there any other API of elasticsearch which i can use to fetch results for more than max int value (i.e. 2147483647) ?

Thanks

Heya,

So, you mean that you have a use case where the user wants to display the 21 474
836 478th doc ?

Really ?

I'm curious to know what is exactly the use case.

Do you want to extract data from elasticsearch ?

David.

Yes user need to display the 21 474 836 478th record or beyond that but since the from query does not accept a long value i cannot pass the 21 474 836 478th value.

So, you mean that if the user can get 10 results per page, he will click 2 147
483 647 times to get the last result ?
And this latest documents are important as the first ones ?

I still don't understand your use case.

When I search "test" in google, I get only the first ten pages (so about 100
documents) of about 3 140 000 000 documents.
I can't go to the 3 140 000 000th documents. I will scroll during many years
before getting the last result.

Practically yes it is not possible, but still if i need display large data sets is their any possibility in Elastic search.

Do we have any other API to fetch large data sets?

Thanks

Yes. You could use scroll API :
