I want to save data to es, but before save operation, i need always check whether or not the index exists; because the restHighLevelClient's bulk method never throws any exception about IndexNotFoundException; therefore it will make performance lower.

Is there any way to catch the IndexNofFoundException with restHighLevelClient SDK?

Thanks for all kind of you

Why not check if the index exist before putting the request in the bulk request?

final boolean exists = restHighLevelClient.indices().exists(new GetIndexRequest(indexName), RequestOptions.DEFAULT);

Or you could check the message of the potential exceptions if they contain the literal text "index_not_found_exception"
