Many aspects of Elastic Search, through the REST interface, can be accessed by a simple URL. Here is an incomplete, but centralized list of some of the most common URL paths.

To look at the status of the server:

http://localhost:9200/_status

To look at the status of an index:

http://localhost:9200/myindex/_status

To look at an index type:

http://localhost:9200/myindex/mytype/_search

To examine a cluster health:

http://localhost:9200/_cluster/health?pretty=true

You can access any of these through a standard browser.
