The book was written using Elasticsearch 5.1.2, and all the examples used in the book should work with it. The request format used in this book is based on the Kibana Console and you’ll need Kibana Console or Sense Chrome plugin to execute the examples used in this book. Please refer to Query format used in this book section of Chapter 2, Setting up Elasticsearch and Kibana for more details. If using Kibana or Sense is not option, you can use other HTTP clients such as cURL or Postman. The request format is slightly different and is explained in the Using cURL or Postman section of Chapter 2, Setting Up Elasticsearch and Kibana.
