Hello, I am trying to use Kibana Alerts and Actions with the built-in index connector (`xpack.actions.preconfiguredAlertHistoryEsIndex`), yet when I try to create a rule and an action there is no option to choose the index connector: ![Screenshot 2021-06-21 at 14.40.53](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/7/b/7bcf279e34beed639f7eb6407ab3f772c9bde311.png) This screenshot was taken while attempting to create a rule in Elastic Security. Debugging Kibana I found the offending part of the code: [kibana/constants.ts at master · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/x-pack/plugins/security_solution/common/constants.ts#L236). I can see that `.index` is not in the approved action types. Does anyone know why is this and if it would be possible to change it? Thanks ---
