`POST/_create_from/<source>/<dest>`

* If the {es} {security-features} are enabled, you must have the `manage`
<<privileges-list-indices,index privilege>> for the index.

[[indices-create-index-from-source-api-desc]]
==== {api-description-title}
This api allows you to add a new index to an {es} cluster, using an existing source index as a basis for the new index.
The settings and mappings from the source index will copied over to the destination index. You can also provide
override settings and mappings which will be combined with the source settings and mappings when creating the
destination index.

[[indices-create-index-from-source-api-path-params]]
==== {api-path-parms-title}

`<source>`::
(Required, string) Name of the existing source index which will be used as a basis.

`<dest>`::
(Required, string) Name of the destination index which will be created.

[[indices-create-index-from-source-api-request-body]]
==== {api-request-body-title}

`settings_override`::
(Optional, <<index-modules-settings,index setting object>>) Settings which override the source settings.

`mappings_override`::
(Optional, <<mapping,mapping object>>) Mappings which override the source mappings.

`remove_index_blocks`::
(Optional, boolean) Filter out any index blocks from the source index when creating the destination index.
Defaults to `true`.

[[indices-create-index-from-source-api-example]]
==== {api-examples-title}

Start by creating a source index that we'll copy using this API.

[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
PUT /my-index
{
"settings": {
"index": {
"number_of_shards": 3,
"blocks.write": true
}
},
"mappings": {
"properties": {
"field1": { "type": "text" }
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
// TESTSETUP

Now we create a destination index from the source index. This new index will have the same mappings and settings
as the source index.

[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST _create_from/my-index/my-new-index
--------------------------------------------------


Alternatively, we could override some of the source's settings and mappings. This will use the source settings
and mappings as a basis and combine these with the overrides to create the destination settings and mappings.

[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST _create_from/my-index/my-new-index
{
"settings_override": {
"index": {
"number_of_shards": 5
}
},
"mappings_override": {
"properties": {
"field2": { "type": "boolean" }
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------

Since the destination index is empty, we very likely will want to write into the index after creation.
This would not be possible if the source index contains an <<index-block-settings,index write block>> which is copied over to the destination index.
One way to handle this is to remove the index write block using a settings override. For example, the following
settings override removes all index blocks.


[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST _create_from/my-index/my-new-index
{
"settings_override": {
"index": {
"blocks.write": null,
"blocks.read": null,
"blocks.read_only": null,
"blocks.read_only_allow_delete": null,
"blocks.metadata": null
}
}
}
--------------------------------------------------

Since this is a common scenario, index blocks are actually removed by default. This is controlled with the parameter
`remove_index_blocks`, which defaults to `true`. If we want the destination index to contains the index blocks from
the source index, we can do the following:

[source,console]
--------------------------------------------------
POST _create_from/my-index/my-new-index
{
"remove_index_blocks": false
}
--------------------------------------------------

Cancels a running data stream reindex task which was started by the <<data-stream-reindex-api, data stream reindex API>>.
Any backing indices that have already been reindexed and swapped into the data stream will remain in the data stream.
Only backing indices which are currently being reindexed, or pending backing indices which are still waiting to be reindexed, will be cancelled.
Once a data stream reindex task is cancelled it will no longer be accessible through the
<<data-stream-reindex-status-api,status API>>. If a reindex task is not currently running
this API will return `resource_not_found_exception`.

Obtains the current status of a reindex task for the requested data stream. This status is
available while the reindex task is running and for 24 hours after completion of the task,
whether it succeeds or fails. If the task is cancelled, the status is no longer available.
If the task fails, the exception will be listed within the status.
