Index Lifecycle Management

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi Team,
I am running a python script which is sending data to elasticsearch on daily basis and creates index datewise. I want to apply ILM policy of deletion for the indexes to be automatically deleted after 2days and I have already applied it on my index but it is showing an error( Index lifecycle error: illegal_argument_exception: setting [index.lifecycle.rollover_alias] for index [project-details-2022-12-15] is empty or not defined.)

  1. This is the screenshot of index being created datewise.

If you are creating daily indices you do not need rollover, disable the rollover in your hot phase and it should work.
