Hi Chris and David, Regarding the API search, this is a known bug in JDK 11 and prior. It can't correctly generate URLs for projects not using the module system (Kafka) that link to projects that use it (Java Standard Library). The bug has been fixed in JDK 12 and higher. To have the search work as expected, javadoc must be generated with JDK 12 or higher (for example JDK16 or the freshly released 17). For further info check https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12782 or https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/10780
