In HySDS, the Elasticsearch (ES) database can be accessed via the “es:head” link (See #1 in image) in the top navigation bar inside the Resource Manager (Figaro). Each adaptation of HySDS has a unique ES database associated with it and can alternatively be accessed with a unique URL.

Figure 1: (#2) Listing of indicies; (#3) Database names in index; (#4) Query ES via “Any Request” tab

In ES each index is associated with a unique dataset; displayed here in a horizontal row along the top of the ES dashboard (#2). The alias name of each index is listed in bold (#3). Alternatively, a complete list of the indices can be found under the tab labeled “Indices” in the upper left corner.

To search ES with a JSON query, click on the “Any Request” tab (#4).

In the Any Request tab, the ES database can be searched using a variety of methods:

• Appending the index alias name to the URL (#5), and clicking “Request” (#6) will display a list of results in JSON format in a column (#7).
