More about how Watcher worksAuthorization: <value>Elasticsearch APIs support key-based authentication. You must create an API key and use the encoded value in the request header. For example:
curl -X GET "${ES_URL}/_cat/indices?v=true" \
-H "Authorization: ApiKey ${API_KEY}"
To get API keys, use the /_security/api_key APIs.
Authorization: Basic <credentials>Authorization: Bearer <token>Elasticsearch APIs support the use of bearer tokens in the Authorization HTTP header to authenticate with the API.
