File name : create\_index\_pattern\_wizards.js  
to fetch all the indices  
return es.search(params)

Now, I want to fetch aliases  
so i wrote es.cat.aliases it did not work out  
so i am trying to write an api  
Code as follows

i wrote create\_index\_pattern\_wizards.js  
$http.get('../api/kibana/management/aliases').then((response) =\> {  
this.aliases = response.data;  
});

i have created a file management folder / index.js

export default function (server) {  
const call = server.plugins.elasticsearch.getCluster('data').callWithRequest;  
server.route({  
path: '/api/kibana/management/aliases/',  
method: ['GET'],  
handler: (req, reply) =\> {  
return call(req, 'cat.aliases', { format: 'json' })  
.then(responseAliases =\> {  
reply(responseAliases.map((a)=\>{  
return a.alias;  
}));  
});  
}  
});  
}

API is getting called but returning 404

any help please
