+== Getting started
+
+This page guides you through the installation process of the Python client, 
+shows you how to instantiate the client, and how to perform basic Elasticsearch 
+operations with it.
+
+[discrete]
+=== Requirements
+
+* https://www.python.org/[Python] 3.6 or newer
+* https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/[`pip`], installed by default alongside Python
+
+[discrete]
+=== Installation 
+
+To install the latest version of the client, run the following command:
+
+[source,shell]
+--------------------------
+python -m pip install elasticsearch
+--------------------------
+
+Refer to the <<installation>> page to learn more.
+
+
+[discrete]
+=== Connecting
+
+You can connect to the Elastic Cloud using an API key and the Elasticsearch 
+endpoint. 
+
+[source,py]
+----
+from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
+
+client = Elasticsearch(
+    "https://...",  # Elasticsearch endpoint
+    api_key=('api-key-id', 'api-key-secret'),  # API key ID and secret
+)
+----
+
+Your Elasticsearch endpoint can be found on the **My deployment** page of your 
+deployment:
+
+image::images/es-endpoint.jpg[alt="Finding Elasticsearch endpoint",align="center"]
+
+You can generate an API key on the **Management** page under Security.
+
+image::images/create-api-key.png[alt="Create API key",align="center"]
+
+For other connection options, refer to the <<connecting>> section.
+
+
+[discrete]
+=== Operations
+
+Time to use Elasticsearch! This section walks you through the basic, and most 
+important, operations of Elasticsearch. For more operations and more advanced 
+examples, refer to the <<examples>> page.
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Creating an index
+
+This is how you create the `my_index` index:
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.indices.create(index="my_index")
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Indexing documents
+
+This is a simple way of indexing a document:
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.index(
+    index="my_index",
+    id="my_document_id",
+    document={
+        "foo": "foo",
+        "bar": "bar",
+    }
+)
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Getting documents
+
+You can get documents by using the following code:
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.get(index="my_index", id="my_document_id")
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Searching documents
+
+This is how you can create a single match query with the Python client: 
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.search(index="my_index", query={
+    "match": {
+        "foo": "foo"
+    }
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Updating documents
+
+This is how you can update a document, for example to add a new field:
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.update(index="my_index", id="my_document_id", doc={
+    "foo": "bar",
+    "new_field": "new value",
+})
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Deleting documents
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.delete(index="my_index", id="my_document_id")
+----
+
+
+[discrete]
+==== Deleting an index
+
+[source,py]
+----
+client.indices.delete(index="my_index")
+----
+
+
+[discrete]

+
