Hello,

I need to collect some metrics from elasticsearch but I can't find the way to get them.  
What I want is :

- the average index rate for all index on a time interval
- the max/peak index rate for an index on a time interval
- the disk consumption for a day

Those metrics seems to me pretty basic but I don't find anything with the REST API, can you help me ?

Best regards.

If you are using the default distribution, it comes with free Monitoring built in - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/monitor-elasticsearch-cluster.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.6/monitor-elasticsearch-cluster.html)

Thanks, but I still don't understand how I can get a specific metrics like indexing rate ?  
I can see this metric in 'live" using kibana\>stack monitoring\>index but I don't find anyway to extract it for a specific time range or how to get the average...
