Hi ,

I want to migrate indices of aws opensearch version 1.2 to Elasticsearch version 7.10. Is it possible to migrate or not? I am facing the version issue when trying to migrate.

You will need to reindex the data, likely using a custom script/application.

I'm wondering if [reindex from remote](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-reindex.html#reindex-from-remote) would work in that case?  
Also may be snapshots might be readable but not sure at all...

BTW I'd try to do it from Elasticsearch 8.4.
