Thanks for the fix @mattkime! Tested locally with the scenario from the API integration test and it works well. Changes also lgtm.

…astic#252422) ## Summary Closes elastic#252409 In some cases the index management index list doc count will show error if the combined length of indices exceeds 4096 bytes. Indices can have names up to 255 chars so this problem could occur on a page size as small as 20. The solution is to use ESQL instead of query dsl to get the index doc counts since the index list gets passed as part of the query body instead of as part of the url. ### Release Notes Fixes problem in 9.3.0 loading the doc count in index management when viewing larger page sizes with long index names. (cherry picked from commit 611fcf9)

Summary
Closes #252409
In some cases the index management index list doc count will show error if the combined length of indices exceeds 4096 bytes. Indices can have names up to 255 chars so this problem could occur on a page size as small as 20.
The solution is to use ESQL instead of query dsl to get the index doc counts since the index list gets passed as part of the query body instead of as part of the url.
Release Notes
Fixes problem in 9.3.0 loading the doc count in index management when viewing larger page sizes with long index names.
