Hello,
We're experiencing a known compatibility issue between FusionAuth and AWS-managed OpenSearch related to Point-in-Time (PIT) operations during bulk delete operations.
Issue Summary:
Error: SearchEngineRequestFailedException with message "A request to the search index has failed"
Log Pattern: Unable to create point in time on index [fusionauth_user]
Frequency: Occurs during nightly dedupe operations
Impact: Prevents deletion of users via the bulk delete API
Status Code: 503
Environment:
FusionAuth Version: 1.55.1
Search Engine: AWS-managed OpenSearch
Infrastructure: AWS
Background:
We understand this is a known issue with PIT operations against AWS OpenSearch, as documented in FusionAuth community discussions. We've reviewed release notes through version 1.62.1 and haven't found a specific fix for this issue.
Questions:
- Is there a timeline for a fix to address AWS OpenSearch PIT compatibility?
- Are there alternative deletion methods that bypass PIT operations we could use as a workaround?
We'd appreciate any guidance on addressing this issue or information about planned fixes.
Thank you for your assistance.
