Elastic Stack Logstash

Hi Teach Team,

I have one ELK single node server installed on the EC2 instance.
Now i need to get logs/metrics from the Cloudwatch and other AWS manage services , did these steps.
1 - ELK stack is installed and working
2 - Create a IAM user on AWS acount with sufficient permission on the AWS services.
3 - Install the Logstash cloudwatch input plugin.
4 - Configure the Input/filter/out setting inside the conf file (/etc/logstash/conf.d/beats.conf)

"
ubuntu@ip-172-31-10-33:/etc/logstash/conf.d$ ll
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2166 Nov 13 21:52 beats.conf
