Hi,
I want to add an additional information in HTTP header (for authentication on server) in http request from filebeat to ElasticSearch. Is it possible ? Please let me know.
Thanks,
RK

Reading the docs it doesn't seem to be possible: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/elasticsearch-output.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/elasticsearch-output.html)
Feel free to add a feature request on [github](https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues)
