Getting Data In

REST /services/data/indexes: How can I see all my indexes using this command?

SK110176

When I run the following command to list the indexes on my indexers, I only see the top 30 per indexer:

| rest /services/data/indexes

How can I see all my indexes using this command?

According to the docs,

| rest /services/data/indexes count=0

OR

https://indexer:8089/services/data/indexes?count=-1

The docs mention that the default for the rest search command is 0, i.e. unlimited. For the REST API, however the documented default is 30 (and -1 is what you set for 'unlimited').

As I have less than 30 indexes, I cannot verify this.

Hope this helps,

In order to get metrics index info also:

| rest /services/data/indexes count=0 datatype=all

I found this answer first, and then found it here: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/10237/getting-splunk-api-to-return-more-than-30-deployment-client...
I was not able to find documentation of the "-1". Thank you!
