Hi all, we've just released a new logstash input plugin: HTTP Poller. This plugin makes it easy to repeatedly hit URLs and turn their output into events, as well as provide performance and other data about URLs.

Full Announcement (with examples): [https://www.elastic.co/blog/introducing-logstash-http-poller](https://www.elastic.co/blog/introducing-logstash-http-poller)  
Documentation: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-http\_poller.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-http_poller.html)
