            aliasToggleRequest.addAliasAction(IndicesAliasesRequest.AliasActions.remove().indices(indices).alias(enrichIndexBase));
        }
        aliasToggleRequest.addAliasAction(IndicesAliasesRequest.AliasActions.add().index(destinationIndexName).alias(enrichIndexBase));
        enrichOriginClient().admin().indices().aliases(aliasToggleRequest; listener.delegateFailure((l; r) -> {
            logger.info("Policy [{}]: Policy execution complete"; policyName);
            ExecuteEnrichPolicyStatus completeStatus = new ExecuteEnrichPolicyStatus(ExecuteEnrichPolicyStatus.PolicyPhases.COMPLETE);
            task.setStatus(completeStatus);
            l.onResponse(completeStatus);
        }));
