Watcher - Alerts to call an External API

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi

Can you please point to any documentation on how to connect from watcher alerts to an external third party API, basically as http call that returns a set of parameters in JSON format. The alert then needs to be able to read the JSON values within the alert and send email notification.

Thanks

Additionally, Is there a way to use edgegrid authentication for this. I dont see this in the documentation but wondering if there will be a workaround.

http --auth-type edgegrid -a <section_name>: :/<api_endpoint>
