I am trying to use Logstash to collect Twitter Steaming data. Every thing looks great, but one thing is missing I guess. It seems that Logstash is not injecting Retweets in ES. Any idea? btw, ignore\_retweets is set to false. So, fields like

```
retweeted_status
retweeted_status.retweet_count 

```

are missing altogether from the collected raw tweet.

See [Twitter plugin retweeted is always false](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/twitter-plugin-retweeted-is-always-false/51237)
