Support API Key authentication for Elasticsearch Serverless

[idosinchuk]

The Elasticsearch Sink Connector currently supports Basic auth and Kerberos auth, however, Elasticsearch Serverless only supports API Key authentication and does not allow Basic Authentication. At the moment, there does not appear to be any configuration option in the connector to authenticate using an API Key.

Does the Elasticsearch Sink Connector currently support API Key authentication in any form? If not, are there any plans to add support for API Key authentication or any recommended workaround to connect the Elasticsearch Sink Connector to Elasticsearch Serverless?

I'd appreciate it if anyone else experiencing the same issue could give the previous comment a 👍. The more visibility it gets, the more likely it is to be prioritized and implemented sooner.

Given that this project has been deprecated, the odds of this happening are very low.
