 All multi index APIs support the following url query string parameters:

+include::{docdir}/rest-api/common-parms.asciidoc[tag=index-ignore-unavailable]
 
-Controls whether to fail if a wildcard indices expression results in no
-concrete indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified. For example if
-the wildcard expression `foo*` is specified and no indices are available that
-start with `foo`, then depending on this setting the request will fail. This
-setting is also applicable when `_all`, `*`, or no index has been specified. This
-settings also applies for aliases, in case an alias points to a closed index.

-Controls what kind of concrete indices that wildcard indices expressions can expand
-to. If `open` is specified then the wildcard expression is expanded to only
-open indices. If `closed` is specified then the wildcard expression is
-expanded only to closed indices. Also both values (`open,closed`) can be
-specified to expand to all indices.

-If `none` is specified then wildcard expansion will be disabled. If `all`
-is specified, wildcard expressions will expand to all indices (this is equivalent
