Hi @Gabriel_Camara,

I wonder if you're receiving a [similar error to this issue](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/api-bug-error-enabling-rule-could-not-create-api-key-unsupported-scheme-apikey-for-granting-api-key/285407). Can you try [authorization via a token](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/api.html#token-api-authentication) instead to see if that request is valid.
