@FrankHassanabad Is this still something that SIEM needs from alerting?

[ymao1]

@elastic/kibana-core Is this something that should be handled automagically by core or do we need to do something in particular to enable this?

@ymao1 Could you elaborate on what exactly, please? The issue doesn't provide any description. Do you want to be able to compress the request body when sending a request to the Elasticsearch service? If so, the new Elasticsearch client supports gzip compression out-of-the-box.
See compression in the official doc https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/javascript-api/current/basic-config.html

@restrry more details from SIEM can be found here #50222 under "Control compression and timeout".

Based on that, the new Elasticsearch client that we provide to them supports this now and this issue and #50217 are probably no longer necessary.
