Search multiple indices

Sends multiple search requests to one or more indices.

This can be useful in these cases:

  • Different indices for different purposes, such as, one index for products, another one for marketing content.
  • Multiple searches to the same index—for example, with different filters.

# In an asynchronous context, you can use SearchClient instead, which exposes the exact same methods.
