Hi, it’s easy to check the index rate of each index in Elasticsearch/Kibana under `Stack Monitoring`. A screenshot is attached below. ![Screenshot from ES](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/mauve_hedgehog/original/2X/b/b30023477b3d5a94e6c23731ebedfbc0eb92a703.png) But I am having trouble finding the same info in opensearch-dashboard. Does opensearch provides it? If it requires user to create a query to find the index rate, could opensearch share the query, or even better, a visualization or dashboard. Thank you ---

Currently, it is not available, Stack Monitoring is a unique feature from Elasticsearch. But It would be great if Opensearch have the same 😗 ---

We have a much more advanced dashboard we use which is based on Prometheus and Grafana to monitor our entire pipeline. I can probably share a copy, but it does require that you use a proper monitoring system (Prometheus) and you can generate alerts from alertmanager if you’d like. Here is another example with directions on the exporter: [Monitoring Elasticsearch with Prometheus: Configuration, dashboards and alerts. (promcat.io)](https://promcat.io/apps/elasticsearch) Another example too: [Monitoring ElasticSearch Cluster using Prometheus and Grafana - bidhankhatri.com.np](https://bidhankhatri.com.np/elk/monitoring-elasticsearch-cluster/) ---

Thank you @jkowall I have the elasticsearch-exporter deployed(image: [Quay](http://quay.io/prometheuscommunity/elasticsearch-exporter:latest)). It looks like it only collects ingest rate data on a node level, but not an index level. And all index related graphs are broken like the screenshot below ![Screenshot from 2022-02-07 09-41-01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/mauve_hedgehog/original/2X/0/00a14e7c708569c8b141b1365df79f92251f25dd.png) It seems metrics like `elasticsearch_indices_docs_primary` doesn’t even exist in my prometheus database ---

OK. I think it’s a permission issue. Checking what permissions are needed ```auto level=warn ts=2022-02-07T19:01:30.190751746Z caller=indices.go:1096 msg="failed to fetch and decode index stats" err="HTTP Request failed with code 403" level=warn ts=2022-02-07T19:01:40.190992731Z caller=indices.go:1096 msg="failed to fetch and decode index stats" err="HTTP Request failed with code 403" ``` ---

By adding `indices_monitor` permissions to my exporter account, index level data does show up. And I can get the index rate like `rate(elasticsearch_indices_docs_primary{exported_cluster="$cluster"}[1m])` Thank you for all the help
