Body Required

• expiration string

  A duration. Units can be nanos, micros, ms (milliseconds), s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours) and d (days). Also accepts "0" without a unit and "-1" to indicate an unspecified value.

• name string
• role_descriptors object

  An array of role descriptors for this API key. This parameter is optional. When it is not specified or is an empty array, then the API key will have a point in time snapshot of permissions of the authenticated user. If you supply role descriptors then the resultant permissions would be an intersection of API keys permissions and authenticated user’s permissions thereby limiting the access scope for API keys. The structure of role descriptor is the same as the request for create role API. For more details, see create or update roles API.

    • cluster array[string]

      A list of cluster privileges. These privileges define the cluster level actions that API keys are able to execute.

    • indices array[object]

      A list of indices permissions entries.

        • except string | array[string]
        • grant string | array[string]
      • names array[string] Required

        A list of indices (or index name patterns) to which the permissions in this entry apply.

      • privileges array[string] Required

        The index level privileges that owners of the role have on the specified indices.

      • query string | object

        While creating or updating a role you can provide either a JSON structure or a string to the API. However, the response provided by Elasticsearch will only be string with a json-as-text content.

        Since this is embedded in IndicesPrivileges, the same structure is used for clarity in both contexts.

        One of:

        _types:IndicesPrivilegesQuery string query_dsl:QueryContainer object _types:RoleTemplateQuery object

        Additional properties are allowed.

          Additional properties are allowed.

      • allow_restricted_indices boolean

        Set to true if using wildcard or regular expressions for patterns that cover restricted indices. Implicitly, restricted indices have limited privileges that can cause pattern tests to fail. If restricted indices are explicitly included in the names list, Elasticsearch checks privileges against these indices regardless of the value set for allow_restricted_indices.

    • global array[object] | object

      An object defining global privileges. A global privilege is a form of cluster privilege that is request-aware. Support for global privileges is currently limited to the management of application privileges.

      • resources array[string] Required

        A list resources to which the privileges are applied.

    • run_as array[string]

      A list of users that the API keys can impersonate. Note: in Serverless, the run-as feature is disabled. For API compatibility, you can still specify an empty run_as field, but a non-empty list will be rejected.
