Java API Administration

IMPORTANT: This documentation is no longer updated. Refer to Elastic's version policy and the latest documentation.

Elasticsearch provides a full Java API to deal with administration tasks.

To access them, you need to call admin() method from a client to get an AdminClient:

AdminClient adminClient = client.admin();

In the rest of this guide, we will use client.admin().
