Hello, I have three different nodes with the default settings and was trying to find a rest call that would show me the number of shards and replicas that are being used on each node. I have done a cluster health to get the overall amount of shards and replicas but looking for a way to see it on each node. Hopefully without alot of other information, just the node and what primary and replica shards it has..... Thanks....

You're first bet is always the docs - [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/) You want with either the \_cat/indices or the indices API.
