RudiC thank you for that suggestion of: 'grep -Eo'... It allowed me to get it working with:

Code:
synced_flush () {

        $curl -s -u ${creds} -X POST "localhost:9200/_flush/synced" | \
        grep -Eo "shards[^}]*failed\":[0-9]*" | \
        sed -e 's/.*://'

}

Code:
until [[ $(synced_flush) == "0" ]]

        do

                synced_flush

        done

This appears to be doing the trick. If there is something really wrong with this approach please let me know. Like most of the scripts I write, they start off 'working' and I improve the efficiency with time ;-) ...

Thanks again scrutinizer, Don Cragun, and RudiC.. Much appreciated.

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
