Invoking the REST API through Java

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I have an elasticsearch plugin that currently does not expose a Java API. I
can only invoke the plugin via the REST API:

http://localhost:9200/_myCustomPlugin

From what I understand about Elasticsearch plugins, the plugin
implementation registers an action at the path "_myCustomPlugin" and when
that link is visited, the action is invoked.

Is there a way to invoke this action directly via the Java API?

This is very few information. If you do not have the source code of the
plugin, it is a bit hard to judge if Java calls are possible. In a plugin,
there are not necessarily ES Java actions implemented when you can make
REST calls.
