Hi.  
Maybe someone has already looked for this question.  
How do I get data from different indexes ?  
How to perform a search combining two or more indexes in elastic ?

Hi David.  
thanks.  
As I understand it, this is an API request to the elascit, which is executed through Devtoll ?  
And the answer in devtoo will be in the form of JSON format ?  
But all this is not a "user frendly".  
Can this answer somehow deduce in kibana ?

Yes. You can run that from devtools or using a curl command.

If your question is about Kibana, let me know and I'll move your question to #elastic-stack:kibana
