I have a bunch of indices, those are **time-series** data.

```auto
GET _cat/indices/jti-log*
green open jti-logical-usage-q3-raw hppahZg0Qj6dLFWTl4ouIw
green open jti-logical-usage-q4-raw 6r5Y-bUFSqOIAl-Q-JSC5g
green open jti-logical-usage-q5-raw znT57xXhS5OGAjiVzGce_Q

```

Upon configuring rollup job, I'm trying to figure out a way to rollup to indices

```auto
jti-logical-usage-q3-raw => jti-logical-usage-q3-5min
jti-logical-usage-q4-raw => jti-logical-usage-q4-5min
jti-logical-usage-q5-raw => jti-logical-usage-q5-5min

```

I could configure 3 rollup jobs for 3 different indices:

```auto
PUT _rollup/job/older_than_1d_to_5min_q3
{
  "index_pattern": "jti-logical-usage-q3-raw",
  "rollup_index": "jti-logical-usage-q3-5min",
  rest_of_config.....
}
PUT _rollup/job/older_than_1d_to_5min_q4
{
  "index_pattern": "jti-logical-usage-q4-raw",
  "rollup_index": "jti-logical-usage-q4-5min",
  rest_of_config.....
}
PUT _rollup/job/older_than_1d_to_5min_q5
{
  "index_pattern": "jti-logical-usage-q5-raw",
  "rollup_index": "jti-logical-usage-q5-5min",
  rest_of_config.....
}

```

Just wondering if there is a way to configure this in one job.
