Update Watcher index settingsedit
This API allows a user to modify the settings for the Watcher internal index (.watches). Only a subset of settings are allowed to by modified. This includes:
-
index.auto_expand_replicas -
index.number_of_replicas
An example of modifying the Watcher settings:
PUT /_watcher/watch/test_watch
{
"trigger": {
"schedule": {
"hourly": {
"minute": [ 0, 5 ]
}
}
},
"input": {
"simple": {
"payload": {
"send": "yes"
}
}
},
"condition": {
"always": {}
}
}
PUT /_watcher/settings
{
"index.auto_expand_replicas": "0-4"
}
The configurable settings can be retrieved using the Get Watcher index settings API.
