Hi Team,  
So i have a requirement where i have to input data in logstash through an http api. I am aware that a plugin called "http-poller" exists for that. But my question is whether this plugin or any other plugin which i am not aware of, supports **digest authentication** for rest api calls. If any plugin supports, then can you please share an example on how it does that.
