@ -58,7 +58,10 @@ This API creates a new named collection of
<<ccr-auto-follow,auto-follow patterns>> against the remote cluster
specified in the request body. Newly created indices on the remote cluster
matching any of the specified patterns will be automatically configured as follower
indices. Additionally, this API can be used to update existing
indices. Indices on the remote cluster that were created before the auto-follow
pattern is created won't be auto-followed even if they match the pattern.
This API can also be used to update existing
<<ccr-auto-follow,auto-follow patterns>>. Note that follower indices that were configured automatically
before updating an auto-follow pattern will remain unchanged even if they don't match against
the new patterns.
