If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the manage_autoscaling cluster privilege to use this API.
If the operator privileges feature is enabled, only operator users can use this API.

This API deletes an autoscaling policy with the provided name.

master_timeout: (Optional, time units) Period to wait for the master node. If the master node is not available before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error. Defaults to 30s. Can also be set to -1 to indicate that the request should never timeout.
timeout: (Optional, time units) Period to wait for a response from all relevant nodes in the cluster after updating the cluster metadata. If no response is received before the timeout expires, the cluster metadata update still applies but the response will indicate that it was not completely acknowledged. Defaults to 30s. Can also be set to -1 to indicate that the request should never timeout.

This example deletes an autoscaling policy named my_autoscaling_policy.

response = client.autoscaling.delete_autoscaling_policy(
  name: 'my_autoscaling_policy'
)
puts response

DELETE /_autoscaling/policy/my_autoscaling_policy

The API returns the following result:

{
  "acknowledged": true
}

This example deletes all autoscaling policies.

response = client.autoscaling.delete_autoscaling_policy(
  name: '*'
)
puts response

DELETE /_autoscaling/policy/*

The API returns the following result:

{
  "acknowledged": true
}
