How to check if an index exists over HTTP?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I wanna create a new index if it doesn't already exist.

How can I check that?

You can use curl -XHEAD localhost:9200/test where test is the name of the
index. It will return 404 status if it does not exists, and 200 if it does.
