Hi
If I have a premium ELK license, how can I use with alerting?!?
I just know the connection between kibana and elasticsearch must be secured... how?!?
And also, what should I do, to send some alerts or anomalies to another API such as SMS or calling machine or....
Thank`s

I have already read this link:

To use Kibana Alerting framework you need some requirements, chec it [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/alerting-getting-started.html#alerting-setup-prerequisites)
Watcher is different from alerting, but they use same framework
So i think you want to use Kibana alerting, and if you have a valid license you can send [webhook](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.x/webhook-action-type.html) to a SMS Gateway ...

Could you please guide me how should I send webhook?
Thank`s

Check it [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/webhook-action-type.html)
Your endpoint target (SMS Gateway, Ticketing system, ...) must expose a Rest API so you can be able to send a POST or PUT from kibana alerting framework
The body of your request to the webhoost can be composed as a json using moustach templating language

I did something like this. I used api Twilio for send sms or whatsapp message.
For more detail check my repository [https://github.com/hoat23/ElasticSearch/blob/master/doc/NotesAboutWatchers.md](https://github.com/hoat23/ElasticSearch/blob/master/doc/NotesAboutWatchers.md)
