Hi all, From https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/shards-and-indexing-data-in-solrcloud.html#ShardsandIndexingDatainSolrCloud-DocumentRouting <https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/shards-and-indexing-data-in-solrcloud.html#ShardsandIndexingDatainSolrCloud-DocumentRouting>, and various posts on the mailing list, the implication is that the content of the “router.field” field is used as the shard name.
But on https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/collections-api.html#CollectionsAPI-create <https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/collections-api.html#CollectionsAPI-create>, the description of “router.field” says: > If this field is specified, the router will look at the value of the field in > an input document to compute the hash and identify a shard instead of looking > at the uniqueKey field I’m wondering which is correct.
