Hi guys,

Is it possible to query for the total disk spaced used for one index over a 24 hour period in the past?

E.g Thursday 8th Feb 12:00 to 9th Feb 12:00.

@Jasonespo are you looking for the disk space that a specific Elasticsearch index is consuming over-time?

@Brandon_Kobel, yes exactly that. But over a set period of time, e.g 1 day/1week/1month not the total time the index has been up

@Jasonespo [X-Pack Monitoring](https://www.elastic.co/products/x-pack/monitoring) will allow you to do exactly this. Without X-Pack, the Elasticsearch [Indices Stats API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/indices-stats.html) will give you this information for a specific point in time, but it won't be available historically.
