Cancel node shutdown preparations

DELETE /_nodes/{node_id}/shutdown

Remove a node from the shutdown list so it can resume normal operations. You must explicitly clear the shutdown request when a node rejoins the cluster or when a node has permanently left the cluster. Shutdown requests are never removed automatically by Elasticsearch.

Note

This feature is designed for indirect use by Elastic Cloud, Elastic Cloud Enterprise, and Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes. Direct use is not supported.

If the operator privileges feature is enabled, you must be an operator to use this API.

Required authorization

Authentication

Api key

Authorization: <value>

Elasticsearch APIs support 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}"

To get API keys, use the /_security/api_key APIs.

Basic

Authorization: Basic <credentials>

Bearer

Authorization: Bearer <token>

Elasticsearch APIs support the use of bearer tokens in the Authorization HTTP header to authenticate with the API. For examples, refer to Token-based authentication services
