[[all-indices]]
== --all-indices

[float]
Summary
~~~~~~~

IMPORTANT: This flag only functions within the scope of
<<index-selection,index selection>>

The `--all-indices` flag allows you to act on all indices in a cluster.

Though this flag allows selection of all indices, the <<exclude,--exclude>>
flag will allow you to exclude indices matching a pattern from the final list.

NOTE: For <<delete>> operations, all Kibana indices (.kibana, kibana-int,
.marvel-kibana) will be filtered to prevent accidental deletion. If you wish
to delete one of these indices, please use the <<index_flag,--index>> flag to
manually supply an index name.
