Required ACL: addObject
  • Existing destination indices are overwritten, except for their analytics data.
  • If the destination index doesn’t exist yet, it’ll be created.
  • This operation is resource-intensive.
Copy
  • Copying a source index that doesn’t exist creates a new index with 0 records and default settings.
  • The API keys of the source index are merged with the existing keys in the destination index.
  • You can’t copy the enableReRanking, mode, and replicas settings.
  • You can’t copy to a destination index that already has replicas.
  • Be aware of the size limits.

Move
  • Moving a source index that doesn’t exist is ignored without returning an error.
  • When moving an index, the analytics data keeps its original name, and a new set of analytics data is started for the new name. To access the original analytics in the dashboard, create an index with the original name.
  • If the destination index has replicas, moving will overwrite the existing index and copy the data to the replica indices.
  • Related guide: Move indices.
This operation is subject to indexing rate limits.
