Hi Joris, I doubt that you can do that. That would require extracting request handler to support incremental updating and I don’t thing it does. In order to update existing doc, you would have to extract content and send it as incrementa update request. You can still use extracting handler to extract content by sending extractOnly=true and get extraction results in response, but maybe better to invoke Tika on client side.
