Filebeat with AWS ES IAM Role authentication ...?

Elastic Stack Beats
1

I am using filebeat-7.4.1 docker on AWS with AWS ES.

It is my understanding that Filebeat doesn't support IAM authentication when used with AWS Elasticsearch service ?

Is there any plan to support this in near future or any workaround ?

Thanks
John

A workaround is to send the data through Logstash and use the amazon_es output. Following a quick search of the beats repo it seems it is likely not on the road map.
