Hey there. Found a working code for me:

```auto
BulkRequest.Builder brb = new BulkRequest.Builder().index(rechnungen10);
Rechnung r6 = new Rechnung();
r6.Rechnungsbetrag = 49.99f;
brb.operations(buop -> buop.update(uo -> uo.id("" + Rechnungsnummer).action(ua -> ua.doc(r6))));

```

Found at [New JAVA API Documentation](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/new-java-api-documentation/299559) -\> [elasticsearch-java/RequestTest.java at main · elastic/elasticsearch-java · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-java/blob/main/java-client/src/test/java/co/elastic/clients/elasticsearch/end_to_end/RequestTest.java#L209-L247)

Elasticsearch Java API Client should be more like this skripting thing =) ... How do you call it?

Painless

Thanks - Enomine
