Originally opened as https://github.com/opendistro-for-elasticsearch/alerting/issues/364


To Create new monitors, currently there is an option to use query DSL only. Looking for an alternative to create monitors using PPL, as PPL is much more easier to understand. Alternative solution, is there a way to convert PPL queries into query DSL?

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the monitor-creation entry point that currently accepts query DSL and checking whether PPL parsing or conversion already exists. Done means monitors can be created with PPL, or a supported PPL-to-query-DSL path is clearly defined and tested.
