Prerequisitesedit

If the Elasticsearch security features are enabled, you must have the
manage_ilm
privileges on the indices being managed to use this API. For more information, see Security privileges.
Descriptionedit
This operation can result in the loss of data. Manually moving an index into a specific step executes that step even if it has already been performed. This is a potentially destructive action and this should be considered an expert level API.
Manually moves an index into the specified step and executes that step. You must specify both the current step and the step to be executed in the body of the request.
The request will fail if the current step does not match the step currently being executed for the index. This is to prevent the index from being moved from an unexpected step into the next step.
