  • local boolean

    If true, the request computes the list of selected nodes from the local cluster state. If false the list of selected nodes are computed from the cluster state of the master node. In both cases the coordinating node will send requests for further information to each selected node.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node.

Responses

  • Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • index string
    • shard string

      The shard name.

    • prirep string

      The shard type: primary or replica.

    • ip string

      The IP address of the node where it lives.

    • id string
    • segment string

      The segment name, which is derived from the segment generation and used internally to create file names in the directory of the shard.

    • The segment generation number. Elasticsearch increments this generation number for each segment written then uses this number to derive the segment name.

    • The number of documents in the segment. This excludes deleted documents and counts any nested documents separately from their parents. It also excludes documents which were indexed recently and do not yet belong to a segment.

    • The number of deleted documents in the segment, which might be higher or lower than the number of delete operations you have performed. This number excludes deletes that were performed recently and do not yet belong to a segment. Deleted documents are cleaned up by the automatic merge process if it makes sense to do so. Also, Elasticsearch creates extra deleted documents to internally track the recent history of operations on a shard.

    • If true, the segment is synced to disk. Segments that are synced can survive a hard reboot. If false, the data from uncommitted segments is also stored in the transaction log so that Elasticsearch is able to replay changes on the next start.

    • If true, the segment is searchable. If false, the segment has most likely been written to disk but needs a refresh to be searchable.

    • version string
    • compound string

      If true, the segment is stored in a compound file. This means Lucene merged all files from the segment in a single file to save file descriptors.

Get snapshot information Added in 2.1.0

GET /_cat/snapshots

Get information about the snapshots stored in one or more repositories. A snapshot is a backup of an index or running Elasticsearch cluster. IMPORTANT: cat APIs are only intended for human consumption using the command line or Kibana console. They are not intended for use by applications. For application consumption, use the get snapshot API.

Query parameters

  • If true, the response does not include information from unavailable snapshots.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node.

  • time string

    Unit used to display time values.

    Values are nanos, micros, ms, s, m, h, or d.

Responses

  • Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • id string

      The unique identifier for the snapshot.

    • The repository name.

    • status string

      The state of the snapshot process. Returned values include: FAILED: The snapshot process failed. INCOMPATIBLE: The snapshot process is incompatible with the current cluster version. IN_PROGRESS: The snapshot process started but has not completed. PARTIAL: The snapshot process completed with a partial success. SUCCESS: The snapshot process completed with a full success.

    • start_epoch number | string

      Some APIs will return values such as numbers also as a string (notably epoch timestamps). This behavior is used to capture this behavior while keeping the semantics of the field type.

      Depending on the target language, code generators can keep the union or remove it and leniently parse strings to the target type.

    • start_time string | object

      A time of day, expressed either as hh:mm, noon, midnight, or an hour/minutes structure.

      One of:

    • end_time string

      Time of day, expressed as HH:MM:SS

    • duration 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.

    • indices string

      The number of indices in the snapshot.

    • The number of successful shards in the snapshot.

    • The number of failed shards in the snapshot.

    • The total number of shards in the snapshot.

Get index template information Added in 5.2.0

GET /_cat/templates/{name}

Get information about the index templates in a cluster. You can use index templates to apply index settings and field mappings to new indices at creation. IMPORTANT: cat APIs are only intended for human consumption using the command line or Kibana console. They are not intended for use by applications. For application consumption, use the get index template API.

Path parameters

  • name string Required

    The name of the template to return. Accepts wildcard expressions. If omitted, all templates are returned.

Query parameters

  • local boolean

    If true, the request computes the list of selected nodes from the local cluster state. If false the list of selected nodes are computed from the cluster state of the master node. In both cases the coordinating node will send requests for further information to each selected node.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node.

Get the cluster state Added in 1.3.0

GET /_cluster/state

Get comprehensive information about the state of the cluster.

The cluster state is an internal data structure which keeps track of a variety of information needed by every node, including the identity and attributes of the other nodes in the cluster; cluster-wide settings; index metadata, including the mapping and settings for each index; the location and status of every shard copy in the cluster.

The elected master node ensures that every node in the cluster has a copy of the same cluster state. This API lets you retrieve a representation of this internal state for debugging or diagnostic purposes. You may need to consult the Elasticsearch source code to determine the precise meaning of the response.

By default the API will route requests to the elected master node since this node is the authoritative source of cluster states. You can also retrieve the cluster state held on the node handling the API request by adding the ?local=true query parameter.

Elasticsearch may need to expend significant effort to compute a response to this API in larger clusters, and the response may comprise a very large quantity of data. If you use this API repeatedly, your cluster may become unstable.

WARNING: The response is a representation of an internal data structure. Its format is not subject to the same compatibility guarantees as other more stable APIs and may change from version to version. Do not query this API using external monitoring tools. Instead, obtain the information you require using other more stable cluster APIs.

Query parameters

  • Whether to ignore if a wildcard indices expression resolves into no concrete indices. (This includes _all string or when no indices have been specified)

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Whether to expand wildcard expression to concrete indices that are open, closed or both.

  • Return settings in flat format (default: false)

  • Whether specified concrete indices should be ignored when unavailable (missing or closed)

  • local boolean

    Return local information, do not retrieve the state from master node (default: false)

  • Specify timeout for connection to master

  • Wait for the metadata version to be equal or greater than the specified metadata version

  • The maximum time to wait for wait_for_metadata_version before timing out

  • interval string

    The interval to do the second sampling of threads.

  • Number of samples of thread stacktrace.

  • Period to wait for a connection to the master node. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • threads number

    Specifies the number of hot threads to provide information for.

  • timeout string

    Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

  • type string

    The type to sample.

    Values are cpu, wait, block, gpu, or mem.

Reload the keystore on nodes in the cluster Added in 6.5.0

POST /_nodes/reload_secure_settings

Secure settings are stored in an on-disk keystore. Certain of these settings are reloadable. That is, you can change them on disk and reload them without restarting any nodes in the cluster. When you have updated reloadable secure settings in your keystore, you can use this API to reload those settings on each node.

When the Elasticsearch keystore is password protected and not simply obfuscated, you must provide the password for the keystore when you reload the secure settings. Reloading the settings for the whole cluster assumes that the keystores for all nodes are protected with the same password; this method is allowed only when inter-node communications are encrypted. Alternatively, you can reload the secure settings on each node by locally accessing the API and passing the node-specific Elasticsearch keystore password.

Query parameters

  • timeout string

    Period to wait for a response. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.

Forget a follower Added in 6.7.0

POST /{index}/_ccr/forget_follower

Remove the cross-cluster replication follower retention leases from the leader.

A following index takes out retention leases on its leader index. These leases are used to increase the likelihood that the shards of the leader index retain the history of operations that the shards of the following index need to run replication. When a follower index is converted to a regular index by the unfollow API (either by directly calling the API or by index lifecycle management tasks), these leases are removed. However, removal of the leases can fail, for example when the remote cluster containing the leader index is unavailable. While the leases will eventually expire on their own, their extended existence can cause the leader index to hold more history than necessary and prevent index lifecycle management from performing some operations on the leader index. This API exists to enable manually removing the leases when the unfollow API is unable to do so.

NOTE: This API does not stop replication by a following index. If you use this API with a follower index that is still actively following, the following index will add back retention leases on the leader. The only purpose of this API is to handle the case of failure to remove the following retention leases after the unfollow API is invoked.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    the name of the leader index for which specified follower retention leases should be removed

Pause an auto-follow pattern Added in 7.5.0

POST /_ccr/auto_follow/{name}/pause

Pause a cross-cluster replication auto-follow pattern. When the API returns, the auto-follow pattern is inactive. New indices that are created on the remote cluster and match the auto-follow patterns are ignored.

You can resume auto-following with the resume auto-follow pattern API. When it resumes, the auto-follow pattern is active again and automatically configures follower indices for newly created indices on the remote cluster that match its patterns. Remote indices that were created while the pattern was paused will also be followed, unless they have been deleted or closed in the interim.

Path parameters

  • name string Required

    The name of the auto follow pattern that should pause discovering new indices to follow.

Unfollow an index Added in 6.5.0

POST /{index}/_ccr/unfollow

Convert a cross-cluster replication follower index to a regular index. The API stops the following task associated with a follower index and removes index metadata and settings associated with cross-cluster replication. The follower index must be paused and closed before you call the unfollow API.

NOTE: Currently cross-cluster replication does not support converting an existing regular index to a follower index. Converting a follower index to a regular index is an irreversible operation.

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    The name of the follower index that should be turned into a regular index.

Downsample an index Technical preview

POST /{index}/_downsample/{target_index}

Aggregate a time series (TSDS) index and store pre-computed statistical summaries (min, max, sum, value_count and avg) for each metric field grouped by a configured time interval. For example, a TSDS index that contains metrics sampled every 10 seconds can be downsampled to an hourly index. All documents within an hour interval are summarized and stored as a single document in the downsample index.

NOTE: Only indices in a time series data stream are supported. Neither field nor document level security can be defined on the source index. The source index must be read only (index.blocks.write: true).

Path parameters

  • index string Required

    Name of the time series index to downsample.

  • target_index string Required

    Name of the index to create.
