Hey guys! I'm trying to temporarily disable SSL in Metricbeat due to a certificate issue, but I'm not getting it. Is there any way to disable it? I've tried this, but it doesn't work. ssl.verification\_mode: none
ssl.enabled: false
Thanksss

Hello,
Disable SSL relative to what? The output? Some endpoint being monitored?
The documentation about SSL can be found [here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/configuration-ssl.html)

Hi @Nooot_VK Welcome to the community.
