[[indices-status]]
== Status

The indices status API allows to get a comprehensive status information
of one or more indices.

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/twitter/_status'
--------------------------------------------------

In order to see the recovery status of shards, pass `recovery` flag and
set it to `true`. For snapshot status, pass the `snapshot` flag and set
it to `true`.

=== Multi Index

The status API can be applied to more than one index with a single call,
or even on `_all` the indices.

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/kimchy,elasticsearch/_status'

curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_status'
