Hello,

I have a configuration file with multiple plugins. I want to disable all plugin and run 1 plugin for some use cases...How can I do that.

My config example-

```auto
input {
    http_poller {
    urls => {
	api1=> {
        method => "POST"
        url => "url1"
		headers => {
                    "Content-Type" => "application/json"
                }
      }
	}	
	request_timeout => 120
	schedule => {every => "30m"}
	codec => "json"
	tags => ["api1"]
  }
http_poller {
    urls => {
	api2=> {
        method => "POST"
        url => "url2"
		headers => {
                    "Content-Type" => "application/json"
                }
      }
	}	
	request_timeout => 120
	schedule => {every => "30m"}
	codec => "json"
	tags => ["api2"]
  }
}
output{
if "api1" in [tags] 
{
	elasticsearch {
		hosts => ["https://localhost:9200"]
		user => "user"
		password => "password"
		ssl => false
		ssl_certificate_verification => false
		index => "index1"
	}
}
if "api2" in [tags] 
{
	elasticsearch {
		hosts => ["https://localhost:9200"]
		user => "user"
		password => "password"
		ssl => false
		ssl_certificate_verification => false
		index => "index2"
	}
}
}

```

suppose, I want to run api1 input and output and not api2 input and output...How can I disable api2 plugins..
