Hi,  
I am running Elastic 6.61 version and trying to use frozen indices. But same queries I used before does not return any data neither in Grafana nor in Postman.

Do I have to do anything different when I use frozen indices?

In the query language, you have to add &ignore\_throttled=false

In my Kibana (6.7.1) advanced settings has an option for search frozen indices.

Edit: Kibana warns you that searching frozen will take longer. If you have the default Kibana timeout at 30 seconds, searching frozen may go over this timeout.

Thanks rugenl, it worked in Postman. But I do not use Kibana, only Grafana. Apparently Grafana does not support this feature at the moment.
