Read:
- [Alerting | Kibana Guide [8.7] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/alerting-getting-started.html)
- [Email connector and action | Kibana Guide [8.7] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/email-action-type.html)
Where is running your elasticsearch? On [cloud.elastic.co](http://cloud.elastic.co)? If so, you need at least a Gold level for email connector: [Elastic Cloud Feature Matrix | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions/cloud)
If not, you need a platinum license at least for the email connector on premise: [Subscriptions | Elastic Stack Products & Support | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions)
Note that you can activate a trial from Kibana.

I have a basic license.

So you will need to upgrade, or use the trial or build your own alerting system or use a 3rd party plugin.
