Hello, I am pretty sure that the coordinating nodes of a cluster do not forward the X-Opaque-ID header to the data nodes.

So if you are using coordinating nodes in a cluster, you can not identify running tasks ([https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/tasks.html#\_identifying\_running\_tasks](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/tasks.html#_identifying_running_tasks)) ?

Thank you in advance, have a nice day.
