The http input plugin acts as a server and processes incoming requests. It looks like you might be looking for the [http poller plugin](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/current/plugins-inputs-http_poller.html), which is able to periodically collect data from HTTP endpoints.

Thanks Christian,  
I was using http\_poller thus :

input {  
http\_poller {  
urls =\> {  
test0 =\> "[http://agromet.inia.cl/api/emas/?user=adbdb1ef0dca1ad](http://agromet.inia.cl/api/emas/?user=adbdb1ef0dca1ad)"  
#test1 =\> {  
# Supports all options supported by ruby's Manticore HTTP client  
#method =\> "get"  
#url =\> "[http://agromet.inia.cl/api/emas/](http://agromet.inia.cl/api/emas/)"  
#auth =\> {  
# user =\> "adbdb1ef0dca1ad"  
# password =\> ""  
#}  
#}  
}  
request\_timeout =\> 60  
# Supports "cron", "every", "at" and "in" schedules by rufus scheduler  
schedule =\> { cron =\> "\* \* \* \* \* UTC"}  
codec =\> "json"  
# A hash of request metadata info (timing, response headers, etc.) will be sent here  
#metadata\_target =\> "http\_poller\_metadata"  
}  
}  
Only is working Test0, Test1 connect but no return data.  
I think Test1 must be run because both are doing the same or not?  
Regards & thanks again  
Luis
