Driving Value for Users by Delivering a Unified Search Experience and Simplifying Data Ingest and Management Across any Content Source

Deepening the prebuilt Elastic Workplace Search connector for Dropbox to include support for Dropbox Paper
Unlocking granular search optimization for customers with the new Elastic App Search precision tuning API
Empowering users to search across more content in less time with enhanced custom source APIs in Elastic Workplace Search

Elastic (NYSE: ESTC) (“Elastic”), the company behind Elasticsearch and the Elastic Stack, announces new Dropbox integrations, the beta release of the Elastic App Search precision tuning API, and enhanced custom source APIs across the Elastic Enterprise Search solution in the 7.13 release.

Elastic Enterprise Search includes expanded content sources for Elastic Workplace Search, now supporting Dropbox Paper and complete document-level permission synchronization across all Dropbox content. Teams that rely on Dropbox to collaborate, create, and coordinate can use Workplace Search to find the content they need alongside relevant chat messages, wiki pages, PDFs, and other content.

The new Elastic App Search precision tuning API, now available in beta, allows customers to adjust the recall and precision of their websites or application search results. Through the power of a single API call or parameter at query time, search admins can easily unlock granular search optimization by configuring how broad or narrow their search results should be to suit the exact needs of their users.

New custom source management APIs, also introduced in Workplace Search 7.13, simplify data ingestion and enable users to manage content from any source, including legacy and custom applications. The new APIs allow for programmatic, on-the-fly creation and operation of sources without the need for manual setup. Users can easily create high-quality ingestion pipelines for any source alongside other day-to-day tools—all with unified relevance.
