Ask Elasticsearch where its configuration path is

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Is there an API call that returns what a cluster's configuration path is? (e.g., /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/, /etc/elasticsearch).

You should be able to get it using this :
GET _cluster/settings?include_defaults=true

I do not see it there, although I do see other path-related info:

    "path": {
      "data": [
        "/usr/local/var/elasticsearch/"
      ],
      "logs": "/usr/local/var/log/elasticsearch",
      "shared_data": "",
      "home": "/usr/local/Cellar/elasticsearch/6.2.2/libexec",
      "repo": []
    }

Sorry I thought you were after the data path, for path.conf/ES_PATH_CONF :

GET _nodes should return the path in nodes.nodeid.jvm.inputArguments
"-Des.path.conf=/usr/share/elasticsearch/config"

Indeed it does! Thank you!

        "input_arguments": [
          ...,
          "-Des.path.conf=/usr/local/etc/elasticsearch"
        ]
