[Persistence] How to Store Edited Flows to Specific Elasticsearch Index

[jasonlee1119]

Hi there, I'm just a newbie to ELSA. As far as I know, the edited flows are stored in Sqlite on my local device. If I want to store persistence data to specific ES server and specific ES index. I didn't see any documentation about this setting. I think I need to set

• Server Endpoint, ex: http://xxx.com
• Username
• Password
• Index Name

And how do I debug for the request ELSA sends to the ES server?

Thank you

To store persistence data in a specific Elasticsearch (ES) server and index using Elsa, you would typically need to configure the Elsa persistence provider to use Elasticsearch. However, as of my last update, Elsa does not natively support Elasticsearch for persistence out of the box. Persistence in Elsa is usually done through database providers like Entity Framework Core with SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite.

If you want to use Elasticsearch, you would likely need to implement a custom persistence provider for Elsa that interacts with Elasticsearch. This would involve creating classes that implement the necessary interfaces to store and retrieve workflow definitions and instances in your Elasticsearch indices.

Regarding the settings you mentioned (Server Endpoint, Username, Password, Index Name), these would be part of your custom implementation. You would need to use the Elasticsearch .NET client (NEST or Elasticsearch.Net) to configure the connection to your ES server and perform the necessary operations.

For debugging the requests that Elsa sends to the ES server, you would use the logging capabilities of the Elasticsearch client and potentially the logging features of Elsa itself to capture the details of the HTTP requests and responses.

Since this is a custom solution, you would need to refer to the documentation and resources for the Elasticsearch .NET client and potentially seek community support for guidance on implementing a custom persistence provider for Elsa.

If you're looking for more specific guidance or examples, I would recommend checking the official Elsa documentation, the Elsa GitHub repository for any community-contributed providers, or reaching out to the Elsa community for assistance.
