Additional ingest processors can be implemented and installed as Elasticsearch {plugins}/intro.html[plugins].
See {plugins}/ingest.html[Ingest plugins] for information about the available ingest plugins.

Sets user-related details (such as `username`, `roles`, `email`, `full_name`
and `metadata` ) from the current
authenticated user to the current document by pre-processing the ingest.

IMPORTANT: Requires an authenticated user for the index request.
