- Part of efforts toward sharding, which is required when dealing with really big databases - New endpoints: `GET /network` and `PATCH /network` - Use it to set a `self` and one or more `remotes` - `self` is a string and indicates the name of the current machine/instance/node - `remotes` is an object containing remote objects. Remote objects consist of a name (the object key) and two values (`url` and `searchApiKey`) - New `/multi-search` parameters: `federationOptions.remote` and `federationOptions.queryPosition` - `queryPosition` should not be set manually (not sure why this is exposed on the request then?) - `remote` accepts a string, specifies which remote instance should run that specific query instead of `self` - Summarized workflow: 1. Set `self` 2. Set one or more `remotes` 3. Query `/multi-search` setting `federationOptions.remote` for one or more queries ## Tasks - [ ] Create: `/reference/api/network` - [ ] `GET` - [ ] `PATCH` - [ ] Update: `/reference/api/multi_search` - [ ] Add `federationOptions.remote` - [ ] Add `federationOptions.queryPosition` - [ ] Add `remoteErrors` to response - [ ] Update: `/reference/api/keys` - [ ] Add new permissions - [ ] Update `/reference/errors/overview` - [ ] `invalid_multi_search_query_position` - [ ] `invalid_multi_search_remote` ## References - SME: @dureuill - Engine issue: https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/4980 - Usage: https://meilisearch.notion.site/API-usage-Remote-search-request-f64fae093abf409e9434c9b9c8fab6f3
