Get pipelines

GET /_ingest/pipeline/{id}
GET /_ingest/pipeline

Get information about one or more ingest pipelines. This API returns a local reference of the pipeline.

Authentication

Authorization: <value>

Elasticsearch APIs use key-based authentication. You must create an API key and use the encoded value in the request header. For example:

		curl -X GET "${ES_URL}/_cat/indices?v=true" \
  -H "Authorization: ApiKey ${API_KEY}"

For more information about where to find API keys for the Elasticsearch endpoint (${ES_URL}) for a project, go to Get started with Elasticsearch Serverless.
