Hello,  
I'm trying to configure email action in my watcher, and when I try to configure the password using this command  
bin/elasticsearch-keystore add xpack.notification.email.account.gmail\_account.smtp.secure\_password

I get next error:  
Exception in thread "main" ElasticsearchParseException[null-valued setting found for key [xpack.notification.email.account]found at line......]

my configuration in elasticsearch.yml is:  
xpack.notification.email.account:  
gmail\_account:  
profile:gmail  
email\_defaults:  
from:'myemail@gmail.com'  
smtp.host:smtp.gmail.com  
smtp.auth:true  
smtp.starttls.enable:true  
smtp.user:myemail  
smtp.port:587

thank you in advance for your help!!!!

regards

can you include a gist to your configuration (your full configuration please, also including indentation), and also include the full stack trace/error message including the correct line?
