Hi Balgrim,

Did you change the default configuration of logstash, creating one index
per day? (Elasticsearch output plugin | Logstash Reference [8.11] | Elastic )

If you kept the default, you can simply run a cronjob calling the index
delete api to delete old indexes
(see: Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic
)

Cheers,
Boaz
