I want to add some more fields in the filters of Haproxy module as it is not fetching all the data.  
Is it possible to do so?

At the moment the only way to do this is overwrite the existing Ingest Pipeline with your own. We are aware this is not optimal and we are working on ideas on how to improve this.

Also we always want to improve our existing modules, so if we miss out some fields, feel free to open an Issue or event directly a PR in our Beats repo with the improvement.
