=== Get Index API
[[java-rest-high-get-index-request]]
==== Get Index Request
A `GetIndexRequest` requires one or more `index` arguments:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-request]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The index whose information we want to retrieve
==== Optional arguments
The following arguments can optionally be provided:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-request-includeDefaults]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> If true, defaults will be returned for settings not explicitly set on the index
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-request-indicesOptions]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Setting `IndicesOptions` controls how unavailable indices are resolved and
how wildcard expressions are expanded
[[java-rest-high-get-index-sync]]
==== Synchronous Execution
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-execute]
--------------------------------------------------
[[java-rest-high-get-index-async]]
==== Asynchronous Execution
The asynchronous execution of a Get Index request requires both the `GetIndexRequest`
instance and an `ActionListener` instance to be passed to the asynchronous
method:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-execute-async]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> The `GetIndexRequest` to execute and the `ActionListener` to use when
the execution completes
The asynchronous method does not block and returns immediately. Once it is
completed the `ActionListener` is called back using the `onResponse` method
if the execution successfully completed or using the `onFailure` method if
it failed.
A typical listener for `GetIndexResponse` looks like:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-execute-listener]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Called when the execution is successfully completed. The response is
provided as an argument.
<2> Called in case of failure. The raised exception is provided as an argument.
[[java-rest-high-get-index-response]]
==== Get Index Response
The returned `GetIndexResponse` allows to retrieve information about the
executed operation as follows:
["source","java",subs="attributes,callouts,macros"]
--------------------------------------------------
include-tagged::{doc-tests}/IndicesClientDocumentationIT.java[get-index-response]
--------------------------------------------------
<1> Retrieve a Map of different types to `MappingMetadata` for `index`.
<2> Retrieve a Map for the properties for document type `doc`.
<3> Get the list of aliases for `index`.
<4> Get the value for the setting string `index.number_of_shards` for `index`. If the setting was not explicitly
specified but was part of the default settings (and includeDefault was `true`) then the default setting would be
retrieved.
<5> Retrieve all settings for `index`.
<6> The `Settings` objects gives more flexibility. Here it is used to extract the setting `index.number_of_shards` as an
integer.
<7> Get the default setting `index.refresh_interval` (if `includeDefault` was set to `true`). If `includeDefault` was set
to `false`, `getIndexResponse.defaultSettings()` will return an empty map.
