Upgrade Readiness Status

edit

This API is experimental and may be changed or removed completely in a future release. The underlying Upgrade Assistant concepts are stable, but the APIs for managing Upgrade Assistant are currently experimental.

Request

edit

To check the status of your cluster, submit a GET request to the /api/upgrade_assistant/status endpoint:

Note: You cannot access this endpoint via the Console in Kibana.

GET /api/upgrade_assistant/status

Response

edit

A successful call returns a response code of 200 and a response body containing a JSON structure similar to the following example:

{
  "readyForUpgrade": false,
  "cluster": [
    {
      "message": "Cluster deprecated issue",
      "details": "...",
      "level": "warning",
      "url": "https://docs.elastic.co/..."
    }
  ],
  "indices": [
    {
      "message": "Index was created before 6.0",
      "details": "...",
      "index": "myIndex",
      "level": "critical",
      "reindex": true, 
      "url": "https://docs.elastic.co/..."
    }
  ]
}

You can fix indices with the reindex attribute set to true using the Reindex API.
