I want to get the value of total volume of data ingested on any index in Elasticsearch. What is the right way to do it? There are multiple pipelines pushing data to it and I do not have control over the data sources so I have to obtain it at Elasticsearch only.

We don't track the incoming volume in GB. There are indexing requests per second, that's about as close as you can come.

_cat/indices will give you a short text output, the Monitoring dashboards will give you a more visual one.
