[[deprecation-system-indices]]
.Direct access to system indices is deprecated.
[%collapsible]
====
*Details* +
Directly accessing system indices is deprecated, and may be prevented in a
future version. If you must access a system index, create a security role with
an index permission that targets the specific index and set the
`allow_restricted_indices` permission to `true`. Refer to
{ref}/defining-roles.html#roles-indices-priv[indices privileges] for
information on adding this permission to an index privilege.

*Impact* +
Accessing system indices directly results in warnings in the header of API
responses. If available, use {kib} or the associated feature's {es} APIs to
manage the data that you want to access.
