Hi there,

I am trying to find out more about `resolver`-related APIs for Elastic Security, as I was not able to find any information about them from [this page](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/security/current/security-apis.html).

These 3 HTTP requests were made (in the same order below) when I toggled the `Analyze event` for the Kibana Visual Event Visualizer.

Request 1:  
`https://[IP_Address]/api/endpoint/resolver/entity?_id=[id_string]&indices=.alerts-security.alerts-default&indices=packetbeat-*&indices=winlogbeat-*`

Request 2:  
`https://[IP_Address]/api/endpoint/resolver/tree`

Request Payload:

- {ancestors: 20, descendants: 500,…}
- indexPatterns: [".alerts-security.alerts-default", "packetbeat-_", "winlogbeat-_"]
- nodes: ["{[id\_string]}"]
- schema: {id: "process.entity\_id", parent: "process.parent.entity\_id", name: "process.name"}
- timeRange: {from: "2022-04-25TXX:XX:XX.XXXZ", to: "2022-05-30TYY:YY:YY.YYYZ"}

Request 3:  
`https://[IP_address]/api/endpoint/resolver/events?limit=5000`

- {timeRange: {from: "2022-04-25TXX:XX:XX.XXXZ", to: "2022-05-30TYY:YY:YY.YYYZ"},…}
- indexPatterns: [".alerts-security.alerts-default", "packetbeat-_", "winlogbeat-_"]
- timeRange: {from: "2022-04-25TXX:XX:XX.XXXZ", to: "2022-05-30TYY:YY:YY.YYYZ"}
