Hello,  
I have a metricbeat index. "metricbeat" index contains documents from 2019 and 2020. I want to re-index the documents from last weekend (w-1) and (w-2) (w-n).

example:

```auto
POST _reindex
{
  "source": {
    "index": "metricbeat*"
  },
  "dest": {
    "pipeline": "metricbeat_reindex",
    "index": "metricbeat-lastweek"
  }
}

```

I'm looking for a pipeline "metricbeat\_reindex" to determine the documents of the past week (w-1) and (w-n).

I'm just wondering if you should not use this: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/date-index-name-processor.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/date-index-name-processor.html) ? With `w` as the `date_rounding` parameter.
