8.17.0

Enhancement

• Introduces recording and retrieving of documents accessed by end-users as part of suggestions to support E-Commerce and SaaS search use-cases

  This is a complement to recent searches which capture the search term, this endpoint captures the entire document enabling to build for use-cases where recent document access patterns need to be surfaced

• Introduces pipeline boost stages by geo and range queries (previous support included term and search queries)
• Consistent composition of headers and params for httpRequest and elasticsearchQuery stages
  • When the inputs for these aren't specified, incoming headers and query string params are used
  • When the inputs are specified, only the specified inputs are used
  • Composition is possible via a custom script that can add headers and params to the incoming values

Fixes

• Set default values to non-required keys when not passed while setting AI preferences
• Configures FAQ and index suggestions behavior for showing all matches when value is empty
• Removes query generation for a react clause query when its value isn't set
• Handle race condition when deleting expired sessions
• Fixes an issue with global envs getting added when a pipeline is added to a fresh cluster
• Includes request URL, Method to be returned for httpRequest and elasticsearchQuery stages
