How to create email connector in Kibana to alert a log?

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Dear all,
I need create email connector to send email when a log has message match with keyword. Alert worked well, but I don't know how to setting email connector when following the guide:

Preconfigured connector typeedit
 my-email:
   name: preconfigured-email-connector-type
   actionTypeId: .email
   config:
     from: testsender@test.com
     host: validhostname
     port: 8080
     secure: false
   secrets:
     user: testuser
     password: passwordkeystorevalue

Where can I insert the config (maybe kibana.yml?)
Does everybody have a more detail guide to create email connector for gmail?
Thank you!

That format is for preconfigured connectors that you can add in kibana.yml, but you can just create one directly from the Alerting UI. It lets you input all the details there.
