Delete forecasts APIedit

Deletes forecasts from an anomaly detection job. It accepts a DeleteForecastRequest object and responds with an AcknowledgedResponse object.

Delete forecasts requestedit

A DeleteForecastRequest object gets created with an existing non-null jobId. All other fields are optional for the request.

DeleteForecastRequest deleteForecastRequest = new DeleteForecastRequest("deleting-forecast-for-job"); 

Constructing a new request referencing an existing jobId

Optional argumentsedit

The following arguments are optional.

deleteForecastRequest.setForecastIds(forecastId); 
deleteForecastRequest.timeout("30s"); 
deleteForecastRequest.setAllowNoForecasts(true); 

Sets the specific forecastIds to delete, can be set to _all to indicate ALL forecasts for the given jobId

Set the timeout for the request to respond, default is 30 seconds

Set the allow_no_forecasts option. When true no error will be returned if an _all request finds no forecasts. It defaults to true

Delete forecasts responseedit

An AcknowledgedResponse contains an acknowledgement of the forecast(s) deletion

boolean isAcknowledged = deleteForecastResponse.isAcknowledged(); 

isAcknowledged() indicates if the forecast was successfully deleted or not.

Synchronous executionedit

When executing a DeleteForecastRequest in the following manner, the client waits for the AcknowledgedResponse to be returned before continuing with code execution:

AcknowledgedResponse deleteForecastResponse = client.machineLearning().deleteForecast(deleteForecastRequest,
    RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

Synchronous calls may throw an IOException in case of either failing to parse the REST response in the high-level REST client, the request times out or similar cases where there is no response coming back from the server.

In cases where the server returns a 4xx or 5xx error code, the high-level client tries to parse the response body error details instead and then throws a generic ElasticsearchException and adds the original ResponseException as a suppressed exception to it.

Asynchronous executionedit

Executing a DeleteForecastRequest can also be done in an asynchronous fashion so that the client can return directly. Users need to specify how the response or potential failures will be handled by passing the request and a listener to the asynchronous delete-forecast method:

client.machineLearning().deleteForecastAsync(deleteForecastRequest, RequestOptions.DEFAULT, listener); 

The DeleteForecastRequest to execute and the ActionListener to use when the execution completes

The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once it is completed the ActionListener is called back using the onResponse method if the execution successfully completed or using the onFailure method if it failed. Failure scenarios and expected exceptions are the same as in the synchronous execution case.

A typical listener for delete-forecast looks like:

ActionListener<AcknowledgedResponse> listener = new ActionListener<AcknowledgedResponse>() {
    @Override
    public void onResponse(AcknowledgedResponse DeleteForecastResponse) {
        
    }

    @Override
    public void onFailure(Exception e) {
        
    }
};

Called when the execution is successfully completed.

Called when the whole DeleteForecastRequest fails.
