I am using x-pack for monitoring and sending alerts on elastic search logs. I am able to send email alerts using x-pack but not able to send notifications to mattermost, I am using webhook configurations.

```auto
"actions" : {
    "my_webhook" : {
      "webhook" : {
        "scheme": "https",
        "method" : "POST",
        "host" : "mylisteninghost",
        "port" : 443,
        "path" : "hooks/<hook_id>",
        "body" : "{\"message_type\": \"INFO\",\"monitoring_tool\":\"ElasticWatcher\",\"entity_id\": 123,\"entity_display_name\": \"hello Amruta1\",\"state_message\": \"ALERT\",\"text\":\"Hello amruta,test meassage from webhook url\"}",
         "headers" : {"Content-type": "application/json"}
      }
    }
}

```

Above are my configurations, please someone guide me with this.  
When I am running the same request with postman, its successful but not with x-pack watcher.  
With postman its sending notification with https scheme and with x-pack watcher with https its giving handshake failure error.  
Please respond someone.

Hey,

can you paste the full output of calling the [Execute Watch API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.1/watcher-api-execute-watch.html) on this watch? Thank you!

Are you using self signed certificates on the mattermost site? Which JDK are you using? Can you run the following against the mattermost system?

```auto
nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 your_mattermost_host

```
