Restore

A snapshot can be restored using the following command:

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/first_snapshot/_restore

The _restore is the REST endpoint for restore operations. It restores the snapshot mentioned in the previous parameter. The preceding command will restore all indices of the specified snapshot name. If you want to restore just certain indices, you must be specify the list of indices in the body of the request:

curl -XPOST localhost:9200/_snapshot/my_backup/first_snapshot/_restore -d '{
  "indices": "my_index",
  "ignore_unavailable": "true",
  "include_global_state": false,
  "include_aliases": false,
  "partial": true,
  "rename_pattern": "my_(.+)",
  "rename_replacement": "restored_$1"
}'

The indices parameter defines the index ...
