Description
Description
Meilisearch v1.31.0 introduced a new skipCreation parameter to skip document creationg when using:
We want to update this SDK to allow passing the skipCreation parameter to the relevant API calls:
- POST
/indexes/{index_uid}/documents - PUT
/indexes/{index_uid}/documents
Tasks
- Update documents API methods to accept a boolean to skip creation
- Update test cases for the relevant methods
- Update the examples in .code-samples.meilisearch.yaml under the
add_or_replace_documents_1andadd_or_update_documents_1keys

Research direction
Start by locating the Java document API methods that call POST and PUT /indexes/{index_uid}/documents, then inspect their existing tests. Add coverage for the boolean skipCreation option and update .code-samples.meilisearch.yaml under add_or_replace_documents_1 and add_or_update_documents_1; done means both methods and examples expose the new parameter.
