Hi Team,
I have a 3 clustesr setup like below
cluster-query
cluster-a
cluster-b
I added a & b as a remote clusters in cluster-query to search the data from query cluster kibana.
Now i want to get the index mapping of cluster-a/cluster-b from cluster-query which is not working as from cluster-query only index search is working for the remote clusters.
Could some one help me is there any additional setup i need to do to get the remote clusters index metadata
Thanks

Can you clarify what you mean by "cluster-query" please?

Hi warkolm,
cluster-query is nothing but one of the ELK cluster but i am using this cluster Kibana to get the data of cluster-a and cluster-b indexes like creating the index patterns cluster-a:my-index-001
but here only search API is working like GET cluster-a:my-index-001/\_search, but i am looking how to execute GET cluster-a:my-index-001/\_mappings API as well
Thanks,

Are you using CCS?

I have added remote cluster end points like localhost:9300 in kibana and using it.. CCS means ( Cross Cluster Search ) i think yes i am using this
