Get index settings Generally available

GET /_settings
Api key auth

Get setting information for one or more indices. For data streams, it returns setting information for the stream's backing indices.

Required authorization

  • Index privileges: view_index_metadata

Query parameters

  • allow_no_indices boolean

    If false, the request returns an error if any wildcard expression, index alias, or _all value targets only missing or closed indices. This behavior applies even if the request targets other open indices. For example, a request targeting foo*,bar* returns an error if an index starts with foo but no index starts with bar.

  • expand_wildcards string | array[string]

    Type of index that wildcard patterns can match. If the request can target data streams, this argument determines whether wildcard expressions match hidden data streams. Supports comma-separated values, such as open,hidden.

    Values are all, open, closed, hidden, or none.

  • flat_settings boolean

    If true, returns settings in flat format.

  • ignore_unavailable boolean

    If false, the request returns an error if it targets a missing or closed index.

  • include_defaults boolean

    If true, return all default settings in the response.

  • local boolean

    If true, the request retrieves information from the local node only. If false, information is retrieved from the master node.

  • master_timeout string

    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.

    Values are -1 or 0.
