The answer is always 0 or 1 I suppose unless I don't understand the question or the api you are using.

Also look at [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/current/java-rest-high-document-update.html#java-rest-high-document-update-response](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/java-rest/current/java-rest-high-document-update.html#java-rest-high-document-update-response)
