Hi Team,  
Can i visualize \_cluster metadata? if yes, please let me know what is the base index for visualization and how.

Basically i am looking visualization for:  
GET \_cluster/state/metadata

I am using marvel but need some more details e.g. closed indexes and their size etc.

Thanks & Regards,

Hmm, I'm not sure it's exactly what you're referring to, but you can query the `.monitoring-*` indices and create custom visualizations from that data if that's what you need.

I couldn't found .monitoring-\* not even by making api call "GET \_cat/shards"

I would to visualize my indexes, e.g:

1. All index with their status (open, close)
2. Size of index

And need is, Marvel doesn't show closed indexes.

Thanks & Regards,
