I want to make a clone database Elasticsearch from server to my local. I already have permission to access API and create snapshots but I can't access the server direct and download snapshots to my local. Is there any way to get a copy database remote ?  
Thanks

Welcome.

I'd use reindex from remote if possible.  
See [Reindex API | Elasticsearch Guide [7.16] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-reindex.html#reindex-from-remote)
