This topic needs further documentation to make it stellar. If you have experience with this transformation step, we encourage you to update this topic. More information can be found in JIRA case DOC-924.

Introduction

The ElasticSearch Bulk Insert step streams data within a transformation to the database.

Note: The ElasticSeach standard cluster name is cluster.name: elasticsearch. When you have e.g. multiple clusters and need to set another name (so to keep them isolated) you need to set this different value in the settings tab, define a "cluster.name" setting and give the desired value, e.g. cluster.name: elasticsearch_1.

As of Pentaho 5.4, the step is designed to work with Elastic Search 0.16.3 (download link).
