elasticsearch node module version installed with the library is 12.1.3
elasticsearch server version 5.1.1
node version v4.6.1

It looks like the searchExists() API was removed in the easticsearch.js 5.0 API update.

As a workaround, you should be able to request the 2.4 API using the apiVersion field in the Elasticsearch config object you pass to the monitor() API of appmetrics-elk, eg.

var config = {
    apiVersion = '2.4'
}
var appmetrics = require('appmetrics-elk').monitor(config);

Solution of @seabaylea works for me

I try above api version but it not working, help me

[imvishalsingh]

var config = {
host: 'http://172.28.49.13:9200',
apiVersion: 2.4
}
var appmetrics = require('appmetrics-elk').monitor();
appmetrics.disable('mysql'); // disable MySQL monitoring

I updated package.json to:
"appmetrics": "^3.0.0",
"elasticsearch": "13.3.1"

This work around no longer works apparently. Maybe apiVersion can't go back that far? Any ideas?
