Hello elastic group, I have a question, I am trying to change the index from winglogbeat to metricbeat making the following configuration in the logstash (conf.d), but it has not worked for me, I would like to have your support.
```auto
output {
if [agent][type] == "winlogbeat" {
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["https://URL-ELASTIC:9243"]
index => "metricbeat-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM}"
user => "elastic"
password => "PASSWORD-ELASTIC"
}
}
else {
elasticsearch {
hosts => ["https://URL-ELASTIC:9243"]
index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{[@metadata][version]}-%{+YYYY.MM}"
user => "elastic"
password => "PASSWORD-ELASTIC"
}
}
}
```
