Hi All,
I am trying to pull out from rest API using http\_poller data that should eventually presented in Kibana.
When i am using curl i have successful results show below , in other hand when using Http\_Poller with config input/output config file show below I get error showed below ,i assume that something i set on the config file is wrong , any idea how to make it works ?
Please advice
Thanks
