Index name with special chars

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi
Due to a wrong config/scripting in the Logstash ES Output plugin, the following indexes with special chars are created.
e2e-%{@metadata][event_date]}
e2e-%{[@metadata][event_date]}

Now I am unable to do any operations on these Indexes like Search or Delete from Sense.

For ex:
GET /e2e-%{@metadata][event_date]}/_search
Result: Request failed to get to the server (status code: 0):

How to handle the special chars and query or delete these indexes !!

Thanks

Got it. Tried the following and worked.

DELETE /event_date

GET /event_date/_search

Thanks.
