Hello,

I have installed ELK stack version 8.12 on one of the test instance. The purpose was to assign the existing ILM policy set for ver 7.17, as I could see new indices are being built with filebeat version 8.x on a production. Reference previous discussion link below.

> Hello, Thank you for the response. Will test and update here on the same thread. Thanks,

Currently after the installation of ELK ver 8.12. I could see as below for the GET request in which I could see the file name starts with .ds-filebeat-8.12.x and it is seen as ".ds-filebeat-8.12.0-2024.02.01-000001"

In this case how to run the GET request e.g. GET filebeat-7.17.15-2024.01.11/\_ilm/explain because the same is not working when tried for version 8.12

```auto
# curl -X GET "localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v"
health status index uuid pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size dataset.size
yellow open .ds-filebeat-8.12.0-2024.02.01-000001 BL9XeL3HTlqCfsoGnbRtIw 1 1 8963 0 24.4mb 24.4mb 24.4mb

```

```auto
# curl -X GET "http://localhost:9200/"
{
  "name" : "ip-x-x-x-x",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "cluster_uuid" : "vWptk-xqQJuNhIdnG9yfkw",

    "minimum_wire_compatibility_version" : "7.17.0",
    "minimum_index_compatibility_version" : "7.0.0"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

```

GET \_cat/indices?v

```auto

Was able to find the answer on the syntax for the same.

```auto
GET <filebeat-8.12.0>

{
  ".ds-filebeat-8.12.0-2024.02.02-000006": {
    "aliases": {},
    "mappings": {
      "_meta": {
        "beat": "filebeat",
        "version": "8.12.0"
      },
      "_data_stream_timestamp": {
        "enabled": true
      },

GET /.ds-filebeat-8.12.0-2024.02.02-000006

{
  ".ds-filebeat-8.12.0-2024.02.02-000006": {
    "aliases": {},
    "mappings": {
      "_meta": {
        "beat": "filebeat",
        "version": "8.12.0"
      },
      "_data_stream_timestamp": {
        "enabled": true
      },
