Loading Index Template of Filebeat into Elasticsearch in Windows

Following the guide in this link to add a filebeat-template. I got the this error:

Then, I added -Credential switch in to PS command followed by the elastic username:

Powershell accepted the command and prompt for the password:

3

And the template was successfully imported.

If your Elasticsearch requires authentication, you need to provide credentials to be able to load index templates. I guess you are using X-Pack, where basic authentication is default.

May I ask you what is your question regarding the behavior you described above?

Thanks for your replay.

Since this a discussion forum, I shared this experience for the people who might get into this issue to shorten the overhead for them because I spent 30 mins searching for the answer.
