I see in the plugin documentation that you need an enterprise license... is that because of the cloud functionality aspect of it?

Is it possible to use this with a basic license anyway if outputting to an on-premise ES cluster?

Likely the answer is no, but it doesn't hurt to ask 🙂

This plugin requires an enterprise license, no matter if the output is on elastic cloud or on-premises.

It is behind a license probably because some business decision.
