`"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"process_cluster_event_timeout_exception","reason":"failed to process cluster event (create-index [twitter], cause [auto(index api)]) within 1m"}],"type":"process_cluster_event_timeout_exception","reason":"failed to process cluster event (create-index [twitter], cause [auto(index api)]) within 1m"},"status":503`
