Is it possible to create a role that can simulate a watch without the ability to save it?
From digging around I came across "manage_watcher" role, but that is not granular enough for what I want.
The reason is that I want to give my users to test watches on prod but I don't want them to be able to save watches (we want an admin process to create watches)
I don't believe so - there is the execute watch API, but that needs manage_watcher.
I wonder if you could create a simple test cluster and use Cross Cluster Search to access the data from that cluster. This way you could have your prod data available to a sort of sandbox cluster.
