+- PUT adds or updates documents in the index with a specified ID. Used for controlled document creation or updates.
+- POST adds documents with auto-generated IDs to the index. Useful for adding new documents without specifying IDs.
+- `_create` is a type identifier indicating that document creation should only occur if the document with the specified ID doesn't already exist.
+- `<index>` represents the name of the index to which the document will be added.
+- `<_id>` represents the unique identifier of the document.

-# Document-level security (DLS)
-
-Document-level security lets you restrict a role to a subset of documents in an index.
-For more information about OpenSearch users and roles, see the [documentation](https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/security/access-control/users-roles/#create-roles).
-
-Use the following steps to get started with document-level and field-level security:
-1. Open OpenSearch Dashboards.
-2. Choose **Security** > **Roles**.
-3. Select **Create Role** and provide a name for the role.
-4. Review the **Index permissions** section and any necessary [index permissions](https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/security/access-control/permissions/) for the role. 
-5. Add document-level security, with the addition of a domain-specific language (DSL) query in the `Document level security - optional` section. A typical request sent to the `_search` API includes `{ "query": { ... } }` around the query, but with document-level security in OpenSearch Dashboards, you only need to specify the query itself. For example, the following DSL query specifies that for the new role to have access to a document, the query's `genres` field must include `Comedy`:
-
-   ```json
-   {
-     "bool": {
-       "must": {
-         "match": {
-           "genres": "Comedy"
-         }
-       }
-     }
-   }
-   ```

+# Document-level security
+Document-level security (DLS) lets you restrict a role to a subset of documents in an index. The easiest way to get started with document- and field-level security is to open OpenSearch Dashboards and choose **Security**. Then choose **Roles**, create a new role, and review the **Index Permissions** section. See the Index Permissions section in OpenSearch Dashboards in the following image.

+
+
+## Simple roles
+
+Document-level security uses OpenSearch query DSL to define which documents a role grants access to. In OpenSearch Dashboards, choose an index pattern and provide a query in the **Document-level security** section:
+
+```json
+{
+  "bool": {
+    "must": {
+      "match": {
+        "genres": "Comedy"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This query specifies that for the role to have access to a document, its `genres` field must include `Comedy`.
+
+A typical request to the `_search` API includes `{ "query": { ... } }` around the query, but in this case, you only need to specify the query itself.
