Return #

The execute function resolves to an updated KuzzleRequest object, with its response part set.

How the response is returned depends whether a callback argument is provided:

• if it is: the execute function returns nothing, and the callback is called once the API call is finished, with the following arguments: callback(error, request)
• otherwise: the execute function returns a promise, resolving to the updated request, or rejected with a KuzzleError object

});

// Mutates the provided KuzzleRequest object by updating the response part of
// it (accessible through the "request.response" property).
