delete\_index.yml :

actions:

description: \>-  
Delete indices older than 10 days (based on index name), for logstash-  
prefixed indices. Ignore the error if the filter does not result in an  
actionable list of indices (ignore\_empty\_list) and exit cleanly.  
options:  
ignore\_empty\_list: True  
timeout\_override:  
continue\_if\_exception: False  
disable\_action: False  
filters:  
- filtertype: pattern  
kind: prefix
