Are you on linux? Windows? Do you realize the command needs to be run from the directory just above the bin directory?

For example:

bash-3.2$ pwd
/Users/richcollier/v8.6.2/elasticsearch-8.6.2
bash-3.2$ bin/elasticsearch-keystore --help
A tool for managing settings stored in the elasticsearch keystore

Commands

list - List entries in the keystore
show - Show a value from the keystore
add - Add string settings to the keystore
add-file - Add a file setting to the keystore
remove - Remove settings from the keystore
upgrade - Upgrade the keystore format
passwd - Changes the password of a keystore
has-passwd - Succeeds if the keystore exists and is password-protected, fails with exit code 1 otherwise.

Thanks for the response @richcollier
Mine is a ECE setup and somehow I am not able to get the elasticsearch-keystore command to work
I could observe 3 different locations where the keystore is created

/var/lib/docker/overlay2/17f0e8c6e95e49e7811ede3f1825d2d2ca7f93b8b6b229cef1a0054885bb13b3/diff/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-keystore

[root@S1GZELKLCOR01 bin]# cd /var/lib/docker/overlay2/bf9a571809ac1e8f1d97b5d59ca76e468ff57d9d1368ef713f44367457a79792/diff/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/

running the elasticsearch-keystore command from the /bin returns
bash: elasticsearch-keystore: command not found...

I recently just upgraded to the v8.6.2 version from the GUI interface

On further research I was able to notice that we could configure the keystore from the GUI
ECE-> Deployments-> Security-> Elastic key Store

Secure your settings | Elastic Cloud Enterprise Reference [3.5] | Elastic

here just want to check if I am providing the correct key value for the O365
The secret I guess would be the account password
