We are creating restclient for connection elastic server, and using HTTPentity for fetching data using index name  
check below code

RestClient restClient = RestClient.builder(new HttpHost(Constents.ELK\_URL, Constents.ELK\_PORT, "http")).build();

HttpEntity entity = null;  
entity = new NStringEntity(  
"{ \n"+  
""query": { \n"+  
""bool": { \n"+  
""must": [ \n"+  
" { \n"+

```
					            "\"match\": { \n"+
					             
					              "\"bank_client_entity_name.keyword\": { \n"+
					               " \"query\": \""+bankClientEntityName+"\" \n"+
					              "} \n"+
					              "} \n"+
					          "} \n"+
					        "] \n"+
					      "} \n"+
					      "}, \n"+
					      
						 "\"sort\": [ \n"+
						"{ \n"+
						"\"timeperiod_id\": {\"order\" : \"desc\"}, \n"+
						"\"date_status\": {\"order\" : \"desc\"} \n"+
						"} \n"+
						"], \n"+
						" \"size\" : 1 \n"+
					"}", ContentType.APPLICATION_JSON);

```

Response response = restClient.performRequest("GET", "/"+eLK\_HIST\_INDEX+"/\_search",Collections.\<String, String\>emptyMap(),entity);  
BufferedInputStream br = new BufferedInputStream(response.getEntity().getContent());

please tell me how to add security X-pack in this above code
