Description
editIn production mode, service accounts require TLS on the HTTP interface. A runtime check prevents you from invoking any related APIs or authenticating with a service account token unless TLS is enabled on the HTTP interface. See encrypt HTTP client communications for Elasticsearch.
The API response indicates whether the specified service account token is found and deleted or it is not found.

elastic/fleet-server service account:
DELETE /_security/service/elastic/fleet-server/credential/token/token42
If the service account token is successfully deleted, the request returns
{"found": true}. Otherwise, the response will have status code 404 and
found` will be set to false.
