Get auto-follow pattern API

Get cross-cluster replication auto-follow patterns.

Request

resp = client.ccr.get_auto_follow_pattern()
print(resp)
response = client.ccr.get_auto_follow_pattern
puts response
const response = await client.ccr.getAutoFollowPattern();
console.log(response);
GET /_ccr/auto_follow/
resp = client.ccr.get_auto_follow_pattern(
    name="<auto_follow_pattern_name>",
)
print(resp)
const response = await client.ccr.getAutoFollowPattern({
  name: "<auto_follow_pattern_name>",
});
console.log(response);
GET /_ccr/auto_follow/<auto_follow_pattern_name>

Prerequisites

  • If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have manage_ccr cluster privileges on the cluster that contains the follower index. For more information, see Security privileges.

Description

This API gets configured auto-follow patterns. This API will return the specified auto-follow pattern collection.

Path parameters

<auto_follow_pattern_name>
(Optional, string) Specifies the auto-follow pattern collection that you want to retrieve. If you do not specify a name, the API returns information for all collections.

Query parameters

master_timeout
(Optional, time units) Period to wait for the master node. If the master node is not available before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error. Defaults to 30s. Can also be set to -1 to indicate that the request should never timeout.

Examples

This example retrieves information about an auto-follow pattern collection named my_auto_follow_pattern:

resp = client.ccr.get_auto_follow_pattern(
    name="my_auto_follow_pattern",
)
print(resp)
response = client.ccr.get_auto_follow_pattern(
  name: 'my_auto_follow_pattern'
)
puts response
const response = await client.ccr.getAutoFollowPattern({
  name: "my_auto_follow_pattern",
});
console.log(response);
GET /_ccr/auto_follow/my_auto_follow_pattern

The API returns the following result:

{
  "patterns": [
    {
      "name": "my_auto_follow_pattern",
      "pattern": {
        "active": true,
        "remote_cluster" : "remote_cluster",
        "leader_index_patterns" :
        [
          "leader_index*"
        ],
        "leader_index_exclusion_patterns":
        [
          "leader_index_001"
        ],
        "follow_index_pattern" : "{{leader_index}}-follower"
      }
    }
  ]
