Review Elasticsearch indices on a recurring schedule

Keep a fresh view of which indices are available for your team's searches.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List Indices

Lists available Elasticsearch indices.

Why this helps

Index names and availability can be difficult to keep in view when they are checked only during a specific task.

  • Review the available indices without opening a separate console.
  • Optionally narrow the inventory with a supported pattern or health filter.
  • Keep periodic inventory results in run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to list the available indices, adding a pattern or health filter if useful.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test once and review the returned index list.

Questions about this workflow

Does the inventory include each index's full mapping?

No. List Indices returns an index inventory. Use Get Index Schema when you need the mapping for a specific index.

Does this workflow clean up unused indices?

No. It lists available indices and does not delete or modify them.
