Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Right so elasticsearch is running on HTTPS not HTTP

You have enabled default security.

This also means elasticsearch is using self signed certs ...are you familiar with them?

So first try curl to see if you have access to elasticsearch

curl -k -u elastic https://<ip>:9200

Then in your logstash

hosts => [ "https://localhost:9200" ]

ssl_certificate_verification => false
