Search api not returning the results

Hi,
I want to get the logs from all the indices in elasticsearch for which I am using following search API.

https://localhost:9200/_search?pretty=true

Output:

                        }
                    },
...........and so on.

Now the problem is, I am not getting the logs inserted by me under _source (only index and some metadata). Please help.

Hi @ritusingh : Can you please search with specific index name

https://localhost:9200/ind_name/_search?pretty=true

Thanks for reply Rohit,
If I go with specific index or even a wildcard expression like ola*, it is working , but I want all the indices created by me.

@ritusingh : Can you try this
POST https://localhost:9200/*/_search
{
"size": 500,
"sort": [
{
"@timestamp": {
"order": "desc",
"unmapped_type": "boolean"
}
}
]
}

Thanks a lot Rohit. Its working :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi Rohit, there is one doubt , using this solution how can I avoid default indices like .kibana_1, .apm_monitoring etc? And also is it possible that I get only one log from each index?
