Hello,  
I'm using helm [chart](https://github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/master/logstash) with image:

```auto
image: "docker.elastic.co/logstash/logstash-oss"
imageTag: "7.10.0"

```

I provide the following configuration in values.yml:

```auto
logstashPipeline:
  logstash.conf: |
    input {
      beats {
          port => 5044
          include_codec_tag => false
      }
    }
    filter {
       // some working filter rules here
    }
    output {
      stdout {
        codec => rubydebug
      }
      elasticsearch {
        hosts => ["http://elasticsearch-master:9200"]
        index => "cdn-logstash-%{[country]}-%{+YYYY.MM.dd}"
        manage_template => false
        ilm_enabled => false
        ssl => false
      }
    }

```

But, the event field variable in index name seems not to be resolved:

```auto
> curl -X GET ingress.elastic.io/_cat/indices

yellow open cdn-logstash-%{[country]}-2020.12.23 VEyPS-OlTQ-6hKCExWl43Q 1 1 48 0 80.9kb 80.9kb

```

Should these vars be resolved using the above format ?  
It seems the context is lost and variable format `%{}` is ignored.

Thanks for any help
