…265671) ## Summary - Adds `form_data` param to the `kibana.request` workflow step, enabling multipart/form-data uploads — specifically to support `POST /api/saved_objects/_import` (and any other Kibana API that uses `--form file=@...` in curl). - Fixes `Content-Type: application/json` being incorrectly set inside `getAuthHeaders()` (an auth-unrelated header); it is now set explicitly only in the JSON-body branches. - Fixes `method` being required in the `kibana.request` connector schema when the builder already defaults it to `GET`. ## How it works ```yaml - name: import_saved_objects type: kibana.request with: method: POST path: /api/saved_objects/_import?overwrite=true form_data: file: content: "{{ inputs.ndjson }}" filename: export.ndjson content_type: application/ndjson ``` `form_data` is mutually exclusive with `body` — using both throws a clear error at runtime. ## Use case Enables hub-and-spoke dashboard sync across ECH clusters by exporting NDJSON from a source cluster and importing it into replica clusters entirely within a workflow — no external tooling required.
