### Infos:

- Used Zammad version: latest
- Used Zammad installation type: docker-compose
- Operating system:
- Browser + version:

### Expected behavior:

- No errors logged

### Actual behavior:

- zammad-scheduler logs: ```ERROR – : Unable to process GET request to elasticsearch URL ‘[http://zammad-elasticsearch:9200/zammad\_production\_public\_link/\_update\_by\_query?conflicts=proceed&slices=auto&max\_docs=1000](http://zammad-elasticsearch:9200/zammad_production_public_link/_update_by_query?conflicts=proceed&slices=auto&max_docs=1000)’. Check the response and payload for detailed information:```

- Running curl to get the logged URL from the scheduler container returns this:  
```{“error”:“Incorrect HTTP method for uri [/zammad_production_public_link/_update_by_query?conflicts=proceed&slices=auto&max_docs=1000] and method [GET], allowed: [POST]”,“status”:405}```

So elasticsearch is reachable and responds, but doesn’t like the request method.

### Steps to reproduce the behavior:

- Not sure, it’s just running like this.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks in advance!
