--- layout: default title: Stats parent: Index APIs nav_order: 72 --- # Index Stats **Introduced 1.0** {: .label .label-purple } The Index Stats API provides index statistics. For data streams, the API provides statistics for the stream's backing indexes. By default, the returned statistics are index level. To receive shard-level statistics, set the `level` parameter to `shards`. When a shard moves to a different node, the shard-level statistics for the shard are cleared. Although the shard is no longer part of the node, the node preserves any node-level statistics to which the shard contributed. {: .note} ## Path and HTTP methods ```json GET /_stats GET //_stats GET //_stats/ ``` ## Path parameters The following table lists the available path parameters. All path parameters are optional. | Parameter | Data type | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | `` | String | A comma-separated list of indexes, data streams, or index aliases used to filter results. Supports wildcard expressions. Defaults to `_all` (`*`). `` | String | A comma-separated list of metric groups that will be included in the response. For valid values, see [Metrics](#metrics). Defaults to all metrics. | ### Metrics The following table lists all available metric groups. Metric | Description :--- |:---- `_all` | Return all statistics. `completion` | Completion suggester statistics. `docs` | Returns the number of documents and the number of deleted documents that have not yet been merged. Index refresh operations can affect this statistic. `fielddata` | Field data statistics. `flush` | Flush statistics. `get` | Get statistics, including missing stats. `indexing` | Indexing statistics. `merge` | Merge statistics. `query_cache` | Query cache statistics. `refresh` | Refresh statistics. `request_cache` | Shard request cache statistics. `search` | Search statistics, including suggest operation statistics. Search operations can be associated with one or more groups. You can include statistics for custom groups by providing a `groups` parameter, which accepts a comma-separated list of group names. To return statistics for all groups, use `_all`. `segments` | Statistics about memory use of all open segments. If the `include_segment_file_sizes` parameter is `true`, this metric includes the aggregated disk usage of each Lucene index file. `store` | Size of the index in byte units. `translog` | Translog statistics. `warmer` | Warmer statistics. ## Query parameters The following table lists the available query parameters. All query parameters are optional. Parameter | Data type | Description :--- | :--- | :--- `expand_wildcards` | String | Specifies the type of indexes to which wildcard expressions can expand. Supports comma-separated values. Valid values are:
- `all`: Expand to all open and closed indexes, including hidden indexes.
- `open`: Expand to open indexes.
- `closed`: Expand to closed indexes.
- `hidden`: Include hidden indexes when expanding. Must be combined with `open`, `closed`, or both.
- `none`: Do not accept wildcard expressions.
Default is `open`. `fields` | String | A comma-separated list or a wildcard expression specifying fields to include in the statistics. Specifies the default field list if neither `completion_fields` nor `fielddata_fields` is provided. `completion_fields` | String | A comma-separated list or wildcard expression specifying fields to include in field-level `completion` statistics. `fielddata_fields` | String | A comma-separated list or wildcard expression specifying fields to include in field-level `fielddata` statistics. `forbid_closed_indices` | Boolean | Specifies not to collect statistics for closed indexes. Default is `true`. `groups` | String | A comma-separated list of search groups to include in the `search` statistics. `level` | String | Specifies the level used to aggregate statistics. Valid values are:
- `cluster`: Cluster-level statistics.
- `indices`: Index-level statistics.
- `shards`: Shard-level statistics.
Default is `indices`. `include_segment_file_sizes` | Boolean | Specifies whether to report the aggregated disk usage of each Lucene index file. Only applies to `segments` statistics. Default is `false`. `include_unloaded_segments` | Boolean | Specifies whether to include information from segments that are not loaded into memory. Default is `false`. #### Example request: One index ```json GET /testindex/_stats ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example request: Comma-separated list of indexes ```json GET /testindex1,testindex2/_stats ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example request: Wildcard expression ```json GET /testindex*/_stats ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example request: Specific stats ```json GET /testindex/_stats/refresh,flush ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example request: Expand wildcards ```json GET /testindex*/_stats?expand_wildcards=open,hidden ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example request: Shard-level statistics ```json GET /testindex/_stats?level=shards ``` {% include copy-curl.html %} #### Example response By default, the returned statistics are aggregated in the `primaries` and `total` aggregations. The `primaries` aggregation contains statistics for the primary shards. The `total` aggregation contains statistics for both primary and replica shards. The following is an example Index Stats API response:
