Enable a rule
To enable a rule, you must have all privileges for the appropriate Kibana features, depending on the consumer and rule_type_id of the rule. For example, the Management > Stack Rules feature, Analytics > Discover and Machine Learning features, Observability, and Security features. This API supports both key- and token-based authentication. To use key-based authentication, create an API key in Kibana and use it in the header of the API call. To use token-based authentication, provide a username and password; an API key that matches the current privileges of the user is created automatically. In both cases, the API key is subsequently used for authorization when the rule runs.
