## Options

<definitions>
  <definition term="--allow-no-match">
    Specifies what to do when the request: 1. Contains wildcard expressions and there are no transforms that match.
    2. Contains the _all string or no identifiers and there are no matches.
    3. Contains wildcard expressions and there are only partial matches. If this parameter is false, the request returns a 404 status code when
    there are no matches or only partial matches.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--from number">
    Skips the specified number of transforms.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--size number">
    Specifies the maximum number of transforms to obtain.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--exclude-generated">
    Excludes fields that were automatically added when creating the
    transform. This allows the configuration to be in an acceptable format to
    be retrieved and then added to another cluster.
  </definition>
  <definition term="--transform-id string">
    Identifier for the transform. It can be a transform identifier or a
    wildcard expression. You can get information for all transforms by using
    `_all`, by specifying `*` as the `<transform_id>`, or by omitting the
    `<transform_id>`.
    **Repeatable:** pass `--transform-id` 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>
