| cluster_id | Yes | String | Definition: ID of the cluster whose snapshot you want to restore. For details about how to obtain the cluster ID, see Obtaining the Cluster ID. Constraints: N/A Value range: Cluster ID. Default value: N/A |

Request Parameters
Table 2 Request body parameters | Parameter | Mandatory | Type | Description |
| target_cluster | Yes | String | Definition: ID of the cluster that a snapshot is to be restored to. Constraints: -
If the current cluster is available, snapshots are restored to the current cluster by default. Alternatively, you can choose to restore them to another specified cluster. -
The destination cluster must be in the same region as the current cluster, and must have a later version than the current cluster. Value range: N/A Default value: N/A |
| indices | No | String | Definition: Specify the name of the index you want to restore. Constraints: You can use "*" to match multiple indexes. For example, index* indicates that all indexes with the prefix index will be restored. -
Or you can restore indexes by specifying their names, for example, index1,index2,index3. -
When "*" is used for index matching, the .opendistro_security index and any system indexes whose name is prefixed with .kibana are filtered out by default. The .opendistro_security index cannot be restored. To restore an index whose name is prefixed with .kibana, you need to specify the index name. Value range: The value is a string of 0 to 1024 characters that cannot contain uppercase letters, spaces, or the following special characters: "\<|>/? Default value: By default, this parameter is left blank. If you do not specify any index name, all indexes in snapshots will be restored by default. |
| rename_pattern | No | String | Definition: Rule for defining the indexes to be restored. Constraints: -
Indexes that match this rule will be restored. The filtering condition must be a regular expression. -
The renamePattern and renameReplacement parameters must be set at the same time in order for them to take effect. Value range: The value can contain 0 to 1,024 characters. Uppercase letters, spaces, and the following special characters are not allowed: "\<|>/? Default value: N/A |
| rename_replacement | No | String | Definition: Rule for renaming an index. Constraints: N/A Value range: -
The value can contain 0 to 1,024 characters. Uppercase letters, spaces, and the following special characters are not allowed: "\<|>/? For example, restored_index_$1 indicates adding the restored_ prefix to the names of all the restored indexes. -
The renamePattern and renameReplacement parameters must be set at the same time in order for them to take effect. Default value: N/A |
| replace_exist_indices | No | Boolean | Definition: Whether to replace existing indexes. Constraints: N/A Value range: Default value: false |
