How to SSL with Elasticsearch Cloud

[mc1392]

I cannot find any documentation on SSL using thr Elastic Cloud.

I see in the documentation a hint at using the Java KeyStore, but there is nothing else on Elastic Cloud, Certificates and SSL.

Any help out there?

Which client are you using?

I'm using the Java REST client.

public RestHighLevelClient getClient(){
		String CREDENTIALS_STRING = this.username+":"+this.password;
		String encodedBytes = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(CREDENTIALS_STRING.getBytes());
		Header[] headers = { new BasicHeader(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, "application/json"),
				new BasicHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedBytes) };
		this.restLowLevelClient = RestClient.builder(
		        new HttpHost(this.END_POINT, 9243, "https")).setDefaultHeaders(headers).build();
		this.client = new RestHighLevelClient(restLowLevelClient);
		
		return this.client;
	}
