== Get Index
The get index API allows to retrieve information about one or more indexes.
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET /twitter
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
// TEST[setup:twitter]
The above example gets the information for an index called `twitter`. Specifying an index,
alias or wildcard expression is required.
The get index API can also be applied to more than one index, or on
all indices by using `_all` or `*` as index.
[float]
=== Filtering index information
The information returned by the get API can be filtered to include only specific features
by specifying a comma delimited list of features in the URL:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET twitter/_settings,_mappings
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
// TEST[setup:twitter]
The above command will only return the settings and mappings for the index called `twitter`.
The available features are `_settings`, `_mappings` and `_aliases`.
