Dear Team,

We have 2 elastic search environment and below are the details. We are trying to the remote reindex the data from old environment(ES-2.1) to new environment (ES-6.1.3).

But we need to reindex the date only for last 2 to 3 years. Is there any query for remote reindex? if so kindly provide the query to copy complete event for last 2 to 3 years.

1. Elastic search 2.1 (OLD ENVIRONMENT)
2. ECE 1.1.4 (NEW ENVIRONMENT)

Reindex api supports indeed that you pass a query.

Just run a search query to test it first. Use a range query on your date field to filter between 2 dates.
