Configuration

type: dynamic_synonym or dynamic_synonym_graph, mandatory

synonyms_path: A file path relative to the Elastic config file or an URL, mandatory

interval: Refresh interval in seconds for the synonym file, default: 60, optional

Update mechanism

• Local files: Determined by modification time of the file, if it has changed the synonyms wil
• Remote files: Reads out the Last-Modified and ETag http header. If one of these changes, the synonyms will be reloaded.

Note: File encoding should be an utf-8 text file.
