Hi all  
I have a problem with the snapshot feature.  
I have a little script that will take snapshot of an indices of my choice in a file.  
But recently when i upgrade to version 7.12 when i take the snapshot, not only the indices that i choose got snap but also some of the system indices.  
Back then on the old version i didnot have this problems, the snapshot query are the same as back on the old version.

Is there a way to fix this problems.  
Thanks

Can you share the script code, or the section that does the actual snapshot request to Elasticsearch?

```auto
curl -k -X PUT -u elastic:pass "https://ip:9200/_snapshot/snapshot/$OUTPUT?wait_for_completion=true" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '
	{
		"indices": "'"$OUTPUT"'",
		"ignore_unavailable": false,
		"include_global_state": true
	}
	'

```

the `$OUTPUT` var is read from a file.

What's the output from `GET /_snapshot/snapshot`?

Why are you including global state?
