Hi,

I know that I can fetch node-level cache stats by using something  
like:

[http://localhost:9200/\_cluster/nodes/stats](http://localhost:9200/_cluster/nodes/stats)

Is there a way to fetch index-level cache stats?

Thx

No, there isn't support for that in the index stats API. There should be, but its a bit trickier to do that.
