Hi Everyone,

So I have been trying to push data from logstash to Elastic using ssl. I am facing the issue when I am doing this thing on Logstash which is running on 7.7 and When I am doing same configuration on Logstash which is running on 8.14 things are working fine.

Logstash Config :

```auto
    if "abc" in [index_name] {
        if "_customfailure" in [tags] {
            elasticsearch {
                index => "failure_index_name_%{+yyyy_MM_dd}"
                hosts => ["https://es-node1:9200","https://es-node2:9200","https://es-node3:9200"]
                user => "username"
                password => "password"
                ssl => true
                cacert => "/opt/elastic_certs/certs/http_ca.crt"
            }
        }
        else {
            elasticsearch {
                index => "index_name%{[@metadata][index_name_day]}"
                hosts => ["https://es-node1:9200","https://es-node2:9200","https://es-node3:9200"]
                user => "username"
                password => "password"
                ssl => true
                cacert => "/opt/elastic_certs/certs/http_ca.crt"
                retry_initial_interval => 1
                retry_max_interval => 1
                retry_on_conflict => 1
            }
        }
    }

```

Error :

```auto
