How to pass the keyword argument to es.indices.exists_alias() in elastic search using python

Question

enter code herewhen i try using below code got errors Like:

if es_client.indices.exists_alias(index_alias):
        print("#########################################")
        current_index = list(es_client.indices.get(index_alias).keys())[0]
        print("@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@: ", current_index)
        print('LOG :: => Index associated with alias is', list(
            es_client.indices.get(index_alias).keys())[0])

Error:

File "sample.py", line 719, in main
    if es_client.indices.exists_alias(index_alias):
       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/elasticsearch/_sync/client/utils.py", line 307, in wrapped
    raise TypeError(
TypeError: Positional arguments can't be used with Elasticsearch API methods. Instead only use keyword arguments.



Later added keyword argument (name = index name or index = index name)  and got different error

if es_client.indices.exists_alias(name = index_alias):
