[BUG] Version 2.11.1 doesn't support Alerts API

[oshi36]

I am using opensearch v2.11.1 and trying to query opensearch API for getting alerts at this path according to the documentation.

GET _plugins/_alerting/monitors/alerts

This path is returning me null as a result. On going further I have found that there is not alert index as well under indices which I can query .

@oshi36 can you run GET _cat/plugins to check whether alerting plugin has been installed?

Also when listing monitors under data sources for each monitor I can see this

"data_sources": {
       "query_index": ".opensearch-alerting-queries",
       "findings_index": ".opensearch-alerting-finding-history-write",
       "findings_index_pattern": "<.opensearch-alerting-finding-history-{now/d}-1>",
       "alerts_index": ".opendistro-alerting-alerts",
       "alerts_history_index": ".opendistro-alerting-alert-history-write",
       "alerts_history_index_pattern": "<.opendistro-alerting-alert-history-{now/d}-1>",
       "query_index_mappings_by_type": {},
       "findings_enabled": false
     },

But I can't find any query_index or alerts_index in my indices

try GET _cat/indices?expand_wildcards=all, note they are system indices, you can not query them directly. To query data you need interact with API

Found this on running the above command /.opendistro-alerting-alerts but how can I get alerts with this?
