New Features

Allow strict document update without creating missing documents

Added an optional skipCreation query parameter to document update endpoints. When set to true on POST or PUT requests to /indexes/{index}/documents, documents that don’t exist in the index are silently ignored rather than created. The default value is false, which preserves the existing behavior of creating new documents. Example usage:

Improvements

S3-streaming snapshots now available as Enterprise Edition feature

S3-streaming snapshots functionality is now exclusively available in the Enterprise Edition. This requires a license for self-hosted deployments. On-disk snapshots remain available in all editions. If you’re using the Community Edition between versions 1.25 and 1.30, you can continue using S3 Streaming without a license.

AWS IRSA authentication support for S3 snapshots

Added support for AWS IRSA (IAM Roles for Service Accounts) authentication when performing snapshots to S3. This allows the use of short-lived access and secret keys for more secure snapshot uploads. This feature is available in the Enterprise Edition and can be configured through new experimental CLI parameters. Find more information on GitHub
