Has integration with Search API been tested?

Everything appears to sync up correctly when I provide my AWS credentials. I'm showing all of the correct info from AWS under info in the Elastic Search Settings with a yellow status, correct # of shards, indexes etc. There is obviously a connection made (THANK YOU!).

However the second I go to then use the connection with Search API it appears to me that the credentials aren't passed. I show a "No alive nodes found in your cluster" which after examining StaticNoPingConnectionPool.php appears to be generated (in this case) when credentials are incorrect of not passed.

Any thoughts?

With credentials turned off (open at AWS) it connects right up and everything works. My thought is that while the credentials are being passed in for the initial connection (which works correctly) they aren't being passed when querying through Search API.

I'm happy to provide any other info that might help.

Best,
Shawn
