I'm having trouble getting the right code to connect to my 6.2.3 server.

I've started a question on Stack Overflow that provides the relevant details: [Here]  
([https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49686505/connecting-to-elasticsearch-6-2-3-with-spring-boot/49686562?noredirect=1#comment86384780\_49686562](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49686505/connecting-to-elasticsearch-6-2-3-with-spring-boot/49686562?noredirect=1#comment86384780_49686562))

I'm new to the ES stack and I'm trying to keep all my versions straight, but I must say the connection API in the Java SDKs is .. challenging to say the least. There has been a lot of volatility in this API and it's really difficult to hunt down the relevant documentation.

I invite anyone who has connected spring boot to ES 6.2.3 to help me with this problem and look forward to learning from you!

Thank you in advance!
