Arguments

• index: index name

Optional:

• refresh: if set to wait_for, Kuzzle will not respond until the update is indexed
• retryOnConflict: conflicts may occur if the same document gets updated multiple times within a short timespan, in a database cluster. You can set the retryOnConflict optional argument (with a retry count), to tell Kuzzle to retry the failing updates the specified amount of times before rejecting the request with an error.
• source: if set to true Kuzzle will return the entire updated document body in the response.
