Hello,
I've been testing the Cisco Meraki webhooks integration lately, and while it works just fine without specifying a shared secret, it stops working immediately once any text is entered in `secret_value` as described in [https://docs.elastic.co/en/integrations/cisco\_meraki#configure-the-cisco-meraki-integration](https://docs.elastic.co/en/integrations/cisco_meraki#configure-the-cisco-meraki-integration)
As far as I can tell, this is because Cisco Meraki sends the shared secret as a JSON attribute `sharedSecret`, as shown in the [test-mx-events.json](https://github.com/elastic/integrations/blob/34242b32eaca2fca20535aa861d54c8d3073cc69/packages/cisco_meraki/data_stream/events/_dev/test/pipeline/test-mx-events.json#L6) file included in the integration package:
```auto
{
"events": [
{
"json": {
"version": "0.1",
"sharedSecret": "secret",
"sentAt": "2021-10-07T08:42:00.926325Z",
[...]
```
http\_endpoint.yml.hbs, on the other hand, [looks for the shared secret](https://github.com/elastic/integrations/blob/34242b32eaca2fca20535aa861d54c8d3073cc69/packages/cisco_meraki/data_stream/events/agent/stream/http_endpoint.yml.hbs#L15-L18) in a non-existing `Authorization` header:
```auto
{{#if secret_value}}
secret.header: Authorization
secret.value: "{{secret_value}}"
{{/if}}
```
I'm mostly posting this to see if this is a confirmed bug, before creating an issue on Github, but please let me know if I'm misunderstanding the way the http\_endpoint input module works or if anyone else has been able to make this module work with shared secrets. Thank you!
