Where does data go from get?

I am a green newbie. I set up a get which returned too many items to read. I would like to access all this data. where is it?

also, I am set up in kibana (I guess) and just found the hidden menu where you can get a terminal. Is there any way to keep this terminal up, or do I have to navigate back to it every time?

Finally, is there a way to just download the data I need from a single get, pipe it into a file, and use that file as input to python? This would work way better for me, because I could then interact with the data using an already learned, simple, powerful, flexible and easy to read language, instead of having to learn all this get/post/whatever stuff that seems to be extremely bug-prone.

Hi @max.hankins, welcome.

From what I understand, you have an index and would like to retrieve all the indexed data in a file to manipulate in an application written in Python.

In this case, I recommend that you use paging to obtain all the data from the index, as this is not possible through a single request.

Thanks very much, I was given this data set without any training, I have been scouring the internet for way to access it.

The only thing I have found is the GET command and related items. Can you do the paging using the GET from the hidden console in (what I think is ) kibana?

And can you keep the console up, or do you have to navigate back to it every time you look back at the data?

And can you assign the output from GET to a file?

I don't want fancy stuff, I can do that easily in python.
