== Managing Watches
|
|
|
|
{watcher} provides as set of APIs you can use to manage your watches:
|
|
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-put-watch>> to add or update watches
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-get-watch>> to retrieve watches
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-delete-watch>> to delete watches
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-activate-watch>> to activate watches
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-deactivate-watch>> to deactivate watches
|
|
* Use the <<watcher-api-ack-watch>> to acknowledge watches
|

=== Listing Watches
|
|
|
|
Currently there is not dedicated API for listing the stored watches. However,
|
|
since {watcher} stores its watches in the `.watches` index, you can list them
|
|
by executing a search on this index.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: You can only perform read actions on the `.watches` index. You must
|
|
use the {watcher} APIs to create, update, and delete watches. If
|
|
{security} is enabled, we recommend you only grant users `read`
|
|
privileges on the `.watches` index.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following returns the first 100 watches:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
GET .watches/_search
|
|
{
|
|
"size" : 100
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
// CONSOLE
|
|
// TEST[setup:my_active_watch]
