I think he's trying to ask how to use that curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/customer?pretty' in windows command prompt. The command he stated is only usable in a terminal like the one Ubuntu uses. Windows cmd doesn't accept curl commands. ---

Unless you install Curl for windows. But I would not recommend it. @Arun_Kumar Use any REST plugin for your browser. I'm using SENSE most of the time. ---

Yeah that tends to be a hornets nest in my opinion. Marvel with Sense works wonders indeed. You can even copy the commands out of the documentation (even if they aren't meant to be used in Sense) and the program will just automatically format it in the correct syntax when you paste it. ---

It's better to open a new discussion instead of using the same thread which is not related. ---
