Elastic Connectors Is Not Connecting to Elasticsearch with SSL

Elastic Search
1

Hey everyone,

I have a standard ELK deployment on a single VM. I am trying to setup and configure the Elastic Connectors as described here: Content connectors | Elasticsearch Reference

I am hitting an issue where the initial 'make run' command is not connecting to a local elasticsearch via https. I have tried a bunch of configuration variations, but am just making things worse.

So I'm reaching out for help...below is my config.yml, and what I see on the console.

Here is my terminal with 'make run':

root@syslog:~/connectors# make run
cd app/connectors_service; make run CONFIG_FILE=/root/connectors/config.yml
make[1]: Entering directory '/root/connectors/app/connectors_service'
Using python3.11 (version 3.11)
.venv/bin/pip-licenses --format=plain-vertical --with-license-file --no-license-path > NOTICE.txt
Due to the length of these fields, this option is best paired with --format=json.
.venv/bin/elastic-ingest -c /root/connectors/config.yml

Here is my redacted config.yml as it is now:

connectors:

connector_id: "fID******************"
service_type: "linux_syslog"
api_key: "c3Z*******************************************************=="
elasticsearch:
host: "https://192.168.122.49:9200"
api_key: "c3Z*******************************************************=="
ca_certs: "/etc/elasticsearch/certs/http_ca.crt"

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Jeff
