The update API combines the read and write patterns explained above.
[[img-distrib-update]].Partial updates to a documentimage::images/04-04_update.png["Partial updates to a document"]
Below we list the sequence of steps used to perform a partial update on adocument, as depicted in <>:
The client sends an update request to
Node_1.It forwards the request to
Node 3, where the primary shard is allocated.Node 3retrieves the document from the primary shard, changes the JSONin the_sourcefield, and tries to reindex the document on the primaryshard. If the document has already been changed by another process, itretries step 3 up toretry_on_conflicttimes, before giving up.If
Node 3has managed to update the document successfully, it forwardsthe new version of the document in parallel to the replica shards onNode1andNode 2to be reindexed. Once all replica shards report success,Node 3reports success to the requesting node, which reports success tothe client.
The update API also accepts the routing, replication, consistency andtimeout parameters that are explained in <>.

When a primary shard forwards changes to its replica shards, it doesn"tforward the update request. Instead it forwards the new version of the fulldocument. Remember that these changes are forwarded to the replica shardsasynchronously and there is no guarantee that they will arrive in the sameorder that they were sent. If Elasticsearch forwarded just the change, it ispossible that changes would be applied in the wrong order, resulting in acorrupt document.
