For security reasons, Elasticsearch server could be using Basic HTTP Authentication. I have created a patch to add basic http authentication username/password for each server. This functionality already exists in Search API Apache Solr.

Modifying the patch so that the HTTP Basic Authentication password is hidden and is never visible on the screen or saved in the DB.

Did you get this working? I'm surprised if you did because I noticed that the headers are all wrong, they should be "Authorization:", not "Authentication:" as in this patch. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication

After changing that everything works for me. It also resolved this issue for me: https://www.drupal.org/node/2372963
