Elasticsearch delete documents from index

Question

I have an Elasticsearch cluster on Kubernetes, I also have a curator that deletes indices older than 7 days.

I want to change the curator to work according to a certain condition:

If document key1=value1 delete these documents delete after 10 days, otherwise delete after 7 days.

Is there any way to do it?

Answer 1

Curator is limited to index deletion as a whole and not at the document level.

What Curator does under the hood is call DELETE index-name and there is not way to configure it to call the delete by query API which is what you're asking for.
