Hi,

I got the basic logstash-http-output plugin working to send our kafka events to webhook endpoint.

The output.conf looks like this

```auto
output {
  http {
    url => "https://oss-flow.test1.com/hooks/tip-alert"
    http_method => "post"
    format => "json"
    headers => ["Authorization", "<xxx>"]
  }
}

```

Is there a way where I can tell logstash to re-try different endpoint [https://oss-flow.test2.com/hooks/tip-alert](https://oss-flow.test2.com/hooks/tip-alert) upon receving 5xx code after couple of retries against [https://oss-flow.test1.com/hooks/tip-alert](https://oss-flow.test1.com/hooks/tip-alert) . Thanks!

I do not believe that is possible.
