Hello. Is there a way to get S3 file metadata into Kibana using the logstash S3 plugin or any other method?  
For example, we have files that when you run 'aws s3api head-object --bucket bucketname --key filename' return something similar to

"Metadata": {  
"date": "09222017",  
"customer\_phone": "985xxxxxxx",  
"session\_id": "9AEDE4D863CE4C0EBAC87CC639BBA227",  
"duration": "00%3A01%3A17",  
"agent": "mtm.xxxx%[40xxxplans.com](http://40xxxplans.com)",  
"direction": "Unknown+Calltype",  
"arw\_phone\_number": "",  
"campaign": "Main+IVR",  
"result": "None"  
},

But I'm not able to search for any of those tags in Kibana. My Stack is as follows:

S3 -\> SQS \<- Logstash SQS input plugin -\> AWS Elasticsearch \<- Kibana

Thanks!
