Elasticsearch Search
Execute Elasticsearch search request
Runs the configured search against the Elasticsearch cluster and returns the response hits. Supports returning the first hit, all hits, or storing hits to Kestra internal storage; default fetchType=FETCH. Uses only the current response page—configure pagination on the request when you need more.

IGNOREFAILWARNAsset failure behavior
Behavior applied to the task state when a declared asset fails to render, emit, or be persisted (e.g. a lock conflict): FAIL escalates it to FAILED, WARN (default) warns it if it would otherwise succeed, IGNORE leaves the state untouched.
Whether to auto-register assets referenced dynamically at runtime that are not statically declared in inputs or outputs.

Optional routing key hashed to pick the shard instead of using the document id.
Outputs
row object
First hit
Available only when fetchType=FETCH_ONE; contains the first hit source.
