OpenSearch Client

Configure and connect to your OpenSearch cluster easily.

What is OpenSearch Client?​


A user interface of the 'OpenSearch Client V2' is displayed. It has fields for 'Credentials', 'Region' with 'US East (Virginia) - us-east-1' selected, and 'OpenSearch Endpoint' with a placeholder text. Icons for settings, help, and delete are present at the top right.

The OpenSearch Client Node allows you to configure and connect to an OpenSearch cluster using a specified endpoint URL and AWS configuration. This node simplifies the process of setting up a connection with your OpenSearch cluster, making it easier to search, index, and manage your data.

How to use it?​

Follow these steps to set up and use the OpenSearch Client Node effectively:

  1. Add OpenSearch Client Node:

    • Drag and drop the OpenSearch Client Node from the node library into your workflow canvas.

  2. Configure OpenSearch Endpoint:

    • Enter the endpoint URL for your OpenSearch Cluster in the "OpenSearch Endpoint" field.

  3. Select your AWS Credentials

  4. Connect other nodes:

    • Connect more nodes, e.g. a Vector Store with a Reader or a Writer.

Required AWS IAM Roles and Permissions​

For the AWS configuration, ensure that the AWS credentials provided have the necessary permissions to access the OpenSearch cluster. Typically, these permissions include:

  • es:ESHttpGet
  • es:ESHttpPost

Refer to the AWS documentation for more detailed permission settings. This will enable smooth and secure communication between your OpenSearch Client Node and the OpenSearch cluster.
