Elastic search not giving data with big number for page size

for real time use the best solution is to use the search after query . You need only a date field, and another field that uniquely identify a doc – it’s enough a _id field or an _uid field.
Try something like this, in my example I would like to extract all the documents that belongs to a single user – in my example the user field has a keyword datatype:

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch


es = Elasticsearch()
es_index = "your_index_name"
documento = "your_doc_type"

user = "Francesco Totti"

body2 = {
        "query": {
        "term" : { "user" : user } 
            }
        }

res = es.count(index=es_index, doc_type=documento, body= body2)
size = res['count']


body = { "size": 10,
            "query": {
                "term" : {
                    "user" : user
                }
            },
            "sort": [
                {"date": "asc"},
                {"_uid": "desc"}
            ]
        }

result = es.search(index=es_index, doc_type=documento, body= body)
bookmark = [result['hits']['hits'][-1]['sort'][0], str(result['hits']['hits'][-1]['sort'][1]) ]

body1 = {"size": 10,
            "query": {
                "term" : {
                    "user" : user
                }
            },
            "search_after": bookmark,
            "sort": [
                {"date": "asc"},
                {"_uid": "desc"}
            ]
        }




while len(result['hits']['hits']) < size:
    res =es.search(index=es_index, doc_type=documento, body= body1)
    for el in res['hits']['hits']:
        result['hits']['hits'].append( el )
    bookmark = [res['hits']['hits'][-1]['sort'][0], str(result['hits']['hits'][-1]['sort'][1]) ]
    body1 = {"size": 10,
            "query": {
                "term" : {
                    "user" : user
                }
            },
            "search_after": bookmark,
            "sort": [
                {"date": "asc"},
                {"_uid": "desc"}
            ]
        }

Then you will find all the doc appended to the result var

If you would like to use scroll query – doc here:

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch, helpers

es = Elasticsearch()
es_index = "your_index_name"
documento = "your_doc_type"

user = "Francesco Totti"

body = {
        "query": {
        "term" : { "user" : user } 
             }
        }

res = helpers.scan(
                client = es,
                scroll="2m",
                query = body, 
                index = es_index)

for i in res:
    print(i)
