### Elasticsearch version compatibility
236
+
237
+
The Elasticsearch Exporter uses the [go-elasticsearch](https://github.com/elastic/go-elasticsearch)
238
+
client for communicating with Elasticsearch, and has forward compatbility with Elasticsearch 8+ by
239
+
default. It is possible to enable best-effort support for older Elasticsearch 7.x versions by
240
+
setting the Elasticsearch exporter config `version` to `7`.
241
+
242
+
Certain features of the exporter, such as the `otel` mapping mode`, may require newer versions of
243
+
Elasticsearch. In general it is recommended to use the exporter with the most recent supported,
244
+
as this will have the most in-depth testing.
