Thanks! I tried including the shard key field in the atomic payload, but still hit routing errors.Tried the following -
# alias + join_s + date in body curl -X POST 'https://example.com/solr/my_content_alias/update?commit=true' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-binary '[ {"id":"DOC123","join_s":"DOC123","date":"2012-03-12T18:30:00Z", "fieldA":{"set":[1]}} ]'Error - 400 (distributed) "Unable to index docs with children… need '_root_'" (we don’t use nested docs) # collection + join_s in body (also tried {"set":"DOC123"}) curl -X POST 'https://example.com/solr/my_content__TRA__2012-01-01/update?commit=true' ...Error - 400 "Unexpected type of routeKey: null" Thanks, Srilekhya On Tue, Sep 9, 2025 at 12:42 PM mtn search <search...@gmail.com> wrote: > Focusing on the first example - Assuming join_s is the > create-collection.router.field > field in the TRA def, you will want to include the field join_s and value > as part of the atomic update payload.
