Delete Index

edit

The delete index API allows you to delete an existing index.

The delete index API can also be applied to more than one index, or on _all indices (be careful!). All indices will also be deleted when no specific index is provided. In order to disable allowing to delete all indices, set action.disable_delete_all_indices setting in the config to true.

Examples

edit

Using the default index

this.ConnectedClient.DeleteIndex<ElasticSearchProject>()

or more explictly

this.ConnectedClient.DeleteIndex("index")
« Create index Open/Close Index »
