Hi Team,

We tried to configure a custom snapshot repository using GCS as per the below documentation.  
[[Configure a snapshot repository using GCS | Elasticsearch Service Documentation | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-gcs-snapshotting.html)]  
We are stucked in the 3 rd step

> From your deployment menu, go to the **Security** page, then click **Create settings** to create an Elasticsearch keystore entry.

Can anyone help me to configure the above step.

Thank you,  
Rajith

Hey @Rajith_konara, this is an Elasticsearch Service issue, I'd recommend opening up a Cloud standard issue to get help with this: [https://support.elastic.co/customers/s/login/](https://support.elastic.co/customers/s/login/)
