Hi,  
Below is the lifecycle policy I used with Elasticsearch version 7.17.9, where it was working successfully. However, the same policy is not functioning as expected with Elasticsearch version 8.15.2. I would greatly appreciate any assistance in resolving this issue.  
PUT \_ilm/policy/test-dev  
{  
"policy": {  
"phases": {  
"hot": {  
"min\_age": "0ms",  
"actions": {}  
},  
"warm": {  
"min\_age": "3d",  
"actions": {}  
},  
"cold": {  
"min\_age": "5d",  
"actions": {}  
},  
"delete" : {  
"min\_age" : "7d",  
"actions" : {  
"delete" : {  
"delete\_searchable\_snapshot" : true  
},  
"wait\_for\_snapshot" : {  
"policy" : "test-dev"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}
