With https://github.com/elastic/stack-docs/pull/2495 merged, we no longer reuse breaking changes in the Stack Install/Upgrade guide. This removes the related `notable-breaking-changes[]` tags from the 8.9+ docs and updates the RN generator template. ## Out of scope With the removal of these tags, we may no longer need the `notable` property for changelog entries and can likely simplify the logic for the [BreakingChangesGenerator](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/main/build-tools-internal/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/gradle/internal/release/BreakingChangesGenerator.java). Updating those files is outside the scope of this PR. I've opened https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/98145 to track that work.

This section discusses the changes that you need to be aware of when migrating
|
|
your application to {es} 8.1.

[[breaking-changes-8.1]]
|
|
=== Breaking changes
|
|
|
|
The following changes in {es} 8.1 might affect your applications
|
|
and prevent them from operating normally.
|
|
Before upgrading to 8.1, review these changes and take the described steps
|
|
to mitigate the impact.

==== REST API changes

|
|
[[search_apis_fields_parameter_normalizes_geometry_objects_cross_international_dateline]]
|
|
.The search API's `fields` parameter now normalizes geometry objects that cross the international dateline
|

[%collapsible]

====
|
|
*Details* +
|
|
The search API's `fields` parameter now normalizes `geo_shape` objects that
|
|
cross the international dateline (+/-180° longitude). For example, if a polygon
|
|
crosses the dateline, the `fields` parameter returns it as two polygons. You can
|
|
still retrieve original, unnormalized geometry objects from `_source`.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
If your application requires unnormalized geometry objects, retrieve them from
|
|
`_source` rather than using the `fields` parameter.

[[deprecated-8.1]]
|
|
=== Deprecations
|
|
|
|
The following functionality has been deprecated in {es} 8.1
|
|
and will be removed in a future version.
|
|
While this won't have an immediate impact on your applications,
|
|
we strongly encourage you take the described steps to update your code
|
|
after upgrading to 8.1.
|
|
|
|
To find out if you are using any deprecated functionality,
|
|
enable <<deprecation-logging, deprecation logging>>.

[[legacy_values_for_discovery_type_setting_are_deprecated]]

.Legacy values for the `discovery.type` setting are deprecated
|
|
[%collapsible]
|
|
====
|
|
*Details* +
|
|
Legacy values for the `discovery.type` setting are deprecated and will be
|
|
forbidden in a future version.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
Do not set `discovery.type` to any value except `single-node` or `multi-node`.
|
|
All other values are equivalent to the default discovery type which is
|
|
`multi-node`. Where possible, omit this setting so that {es} uses the default
|
|
discovery type.

[[lenient_parsing_of_bulk_actions_deprecated]]
|
|
.Lenient parsing of bulk actions is deprecated
|
|
[%collapsible]
|
|
====
|
|
*Details* +
|
|
Older versions of {es} parse the action lines of bulk requests very permissively
|
|
and would silently ignore invalid or malformed actions. This lenience is
|
|
deprecated and a future version will reject bulk requests containing invalid
|
|
actions.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
Ensure that bulk actions are well-formed JSON objects containing a single entry
|
|
with the correct key.

[[deprecate_index_include_frozen_request_parameter_in_sql_api]]
|
|
.Deprecate `index_include_frozen` request parameter in `_sql` API
|
|
[%collapsible]
|
|
====
|
|
*Details* +
|
|
Following the deprecation of frozen indices, the `index_include_frozen`
|
|
parameter and `FROZEN` syntax is now also deprecated.
|
|
|
|
*Impact* +
|
|
You should unfreeze frozen indices using the
|
|
{ref}/unfreeze-index-api.html[unfreeze index API] and stop using the
|
|
`index_include_frozen` parameter or the `FROZEN` keyword in SQL
|
|
queries. For some use cases, the frozen tier may be a suitable
|
|
replacement for frozen indices. See {ref}/data-tiers.html[data tiers]
|
|
for more information.
