List ElasticSearch Index names only

GET /_cat/indices/ returns a detailed list of ElasticSearch indices including their size etc.

Is it possible to just get their names?

Yes it has many options.

If you are only looking for name then below would be helpful

GET /_cat/indices?pri&h=index

Please refer the below link for detailed descriptions.

You can achieve that by specifying which columns you want:

GET _cat/indices?h=idx

In order to find all the columns available for a given CAT endpoint, you can use the help parameter:

GET _cat/indices?help
