Is there a way to list all the installed plugins from the Java High Level Rest Client similar to the Rest API:

GET /\_cat/plugins

Documented here:

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cat-plugins.html#cat-plugins-tasks-api-request](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cat-plugins.html#cat-plugins-tasks-api-request)

Kind regards,  
Paul

You need to use the LowLevel client for this.
