Is there a way I can get the version of a document back in update response after adding or updating the document via Solrj 5.2.1? I don't want to make one more extra call getById to get the version. Can I somehow get the version in the Update response itself?
As per the discussion I had in solr mailing list. The version number can be obtained in update response by setting versions=true
flag in each update requests. This is described here towards the end.
In SolrJ this can be set as follows:-
UpdateRequest().getParam().add("versions","true")
