## Options

<definitions>
  <definition term="--index string required">
    The name of the index contained in the snapshot whose data is to be mounted.
    If no `renamed_index` is specified, this name will also be used to create the new index.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--repository string required">
    The name of the repository containing the snapshot of the index to mount.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--snapshot string required">
    The name of the snapshot of the index to mount.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--master-timeout string">
    The period to wait for the master node.
    If the master node is not available before the timeout expires, the request fails and returns an error.
    To indicate that the request should never timeout, set it to `-1`.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--wait-for-completion">
    If true, the request blocks until the operation is complete.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--storage enum">
    The mount option for the searchable snapshot index.
    For further information on mount options, refer to: [Mount options](https://www.elastic.co/docs/deploy-manage/tools/snapshot-and-restore/searchable-snapshots#searchable-snapshot-mount-storage-options)
    **Values:** full_copy, shared_cache
  </definition>
  <definition term="--renamed-index string">
    The name of the index that will be created.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--index-settings string">
    The settings that should be added to the index when it is mounted.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--ignore-index-settings string[]">
    The names of settings that should be removed from the index when it is mounted.
    **Repeatable:** pass `--ignore-index-settings` multiple times to supply more than one value
  </definition>
  <definition term="--error-trace">
    When set to `true` Elasticsearch will include the full stack trace of errors
    when they occur.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--filter-path string">
    Comma-separated list of filters in dot notation which reduce the response
    returned by Elasticsearch.
    **Repeatable:** pass `--filter-path` multiple times to supply more than one value
  </definition>
  <definition term="--human">
    When set to `true` will return statistics in a format suitable for humans.
    For example `"exists_time": "1h"` for humans and
    `"exists_time_in_millis": 3600000` for computers. When disabled the human
    readable values will be omitted. This makes sense for responses being consumed
    only by machines.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--pretty">
    If set to `true` the returned JSON will be "pretty-formatted". Only use
    this option for debugging only.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--input-file string">
    path to a JSON file to use as command input
  </definition>
  <definition term="--dry-run">
    validate all inputs and exit without performing any action (preview changes without applying them)
  </definition>
</definitions>
