Please format your code using </> icon as explained in this guide and not the citation button. It will make your post more readable.

Or use markdown style like:

```

```

Please edit your post.

You can use delete by query feature but I don't know how you call it from python.
Easier may be to do that in Kibana Dev Console.

It works. Deleting document from multiple indices in elasticsearch using following DELETE API call.

curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9200/mqtt-index-*/logs/_query' -d '{
"query" : {
    "match" : {"device_id": 31}
}
}' -i

You can also delete documents with matching multiple fields.

curl -XDELETE 'http://localhost:9200/mqtt-index-*/logs/_query' -d '{
"query" : {
    "bool": {
        "must":[
    {"match" : {"device_id":31}}, 
    {"match":  {"datastream_name": "test"}}
    ]
}
}' -i
