Exclude index name using mserch query in elasticsearch










1















I am using elasticsearch to fetch logs using msearch API for multiple indices.
But I need to exclude some indexes. Suppose I have a,b,c,d,e indexes but I don't want to include indexes b,c.



I wrote elasticsearch query to fetch records:



GET _msearch?
"index":"*","size":100000,"exclude":["b","c"] //used kibana to check indexes
"query": //required to successfully run the query


But I am getting records including indexes b,c. I checked the documentation but I didn't get any proper resource for this.
How can I resolve this??

          This code should do the trick:



          GET _msearch?
          "index":"*,-b,-c","size":100000
          "query":


          Note the minus (-) in the "index" value.



          Although there isn't an explicit mention in the _msearch docs page, it looks like most of the APIs supporting multi index execution work in the same way:




          Most APIs that refer to an index parameter support execution across
          multiple indices, using simple test1,test2,test3 notation (or _all for
          all indices).
          It also support wildcards, for example: test* or test or tet or
          test, and the ability to "exclude" (-), for example: test*,-test3.




          There's a similar question on search over multiple indexes in general.
