I'm writing metricbeat data from several computes to my elasticsearch.  
Some metricbeats are writing directly to ElasicSearch and some through logstash.  
The data from the metricbeat is written to a datastream named .ds-metricbeat-8.7.1-2023.11.20-000004  
2023.11.20 was two days ago and I'm not sure when I'll get a new datastream  
I was trying to get Logstash to write to the same datastream as metricbeat  
How do I make Logstash do that.  
The closest I got was .ds-metrics-metricbeat-8.7.1-2023.11.22-000001
