The official Python client for Elasticsearch.
Download the latest version of Elasticsearch or sign-up for a free trial of Elastic Cloud.
Refer to the Installation section of the getting started documentation.
Refer to the Connecting section of the getting started documentation.
Language clients are forward compatible: each client version works with equivalent and later minor versions of Elasticsearch without breaking.
Compatibility does not imply full feature parity. New Elasticsearch features are supported only in equivalent client versions. For example, an 8.12 client fully supports Elasticsearch 8.12 features and works with 8.13 without breaking; however, it does not support new Elasticsearch 8.13 features. An 8.13 client fully supports Elasticsearch 8.13 features.
Elasticsearch version | elasticsearch-py branch |
---|---|
main | main |
9.x | 9.x |
9.x | 8.x |
8.x | 8.x |
Elasticsearch language clients are also backward compatible across minor versions — with default distributions and without guarantees.
[!TIP] To upgrade to a new major version, first upgrade Elasticsearch, then upgrade the Python Elasticsearch client.
If you need to work with multiple client versions, note that older versions are also released as elasticsearch7
and elasticsearch8
.
Documentation for the client is available on elastic.co and Read the Docs.
