# Elasticsearch Instrumentation

The [Elasticsearch Java client](https://www.elastic.co/docs/reference/elasticsearch/clients/java/getting-started) provides built-in OpenTelemetry instrumentation that automatically traces operations performed against Elasticsearch clusters.
No additional instrumentation package is required.

The built-in instrumentation captures spans for search queries, index operations, and other interactions with your Elasticsearch cluster.

For a list of features and installation guide, consult the [Elasticsearch Java client documentation][es docs].

Having trouble reporting Elasticsearch data to AppSignal, please [contact AppSignal support](mailto:support@appsignal.com).
