Hello Team

I'm using Logstash-Cloudwatch-input-Plugin. But I'm getting an error. Please do suggest whats's wrong in my Configuration.  
Here is Logstash.conf file

```
    input {
  cloudwatch {
    namespace => "AWS/EC2"
    metrics => ["CPUUtilization"]
    filters => { "tag:Name"=>"Elasticsearch" }
    region => "ap-southeast-1"
	access_key_id => " *****************"
	secret_access_key => " ************************"
  }
}
filter{
    
  
}
output {
  elasticsearch { hosts => "localhost:9200"
                  index => "cloudwatch_plugin"
	 }
  stdout {codec => "json"}
}

```

Log File: `Plugin: <LogStash::Inputs::CloudWatch namespace=>"AWS/EC2", metrics=>["CPUUtilization"], region=>"ap-southeast-1", access_key_id=>" ****************", secret_access_key=><****************** >, id=>"33e83d07be7acc0a94dcceaa7d9aec44ff5775d298461c4e973f0bda8495e87f", enable_metric=>true, codec=><LogStash::Codecs::Plain id=>"plain_fa596153-633c-429e-accf-58136d997cf0", enable_metric=>true, charset=>"UTF-8">, use_ssl=>true, statistics=>["SampleCount", "Average", "Minimum", "Maximum", "Sum"], interval=>900, period=>300, combined=>false> Error: No metrics to query Exception: RuntimeError`
