Index Alias

[tahseen_fatima (Tahseen)]

Hi,

I want to create an index with name xyz-yyyy-MM.
Index Name should be like : xyz-2020-01
xyz-2020-04
xyz-2020-12
xyz-2021-05

I want to add these index into one in this pattern "xyz" with "*"
Will it be possible to make an alias index with xyz without star?
Kindly Help.

Regards,
Tahseen

Try this to create an alias xyz and then add an index pattern based on this alias

POST /_aliases
{
  "actions" : [
    { "add" : { "index" : "xyz-*", "alias" : "xyz" } }
  ]
}
