I am periodically training an anomaly detection model and I am saving it in `elasticsearch` index of the form `'anomaly_detection_model-' + date_model_trained`. This means that I am ending up with indices of the form: `anomaly_detection_model-31.08.2022`, `anomaly_detection_model-29.08.2022`, `anomaly_detection_model-27.08.2022`, etc. I need to be able to get access to the latest model at real-time in order to make the predictions without knowing what is the date that this model was trained. Do you have any ideas of how this could be possible?

`GET /_cat/indices/anomaly_detection_model-*?pretty&s=creation.date:desc` should do it.
