Delete an index

Deletes an index and all its settings.

  • Deleting an index doesn’t delete its analytics data.
  • If you try to delete a non-existing index, the operation is ignored without warning.
  • If the index you want to delete has replica indices, the replicas become independent indices.
  • If the index you want to delete is a replica index, you must first unlink it from its primary index before you can delete it. For more information, see Delete replica indices.
