Dynamic URL with below does not work. When I replace the "oid" with a constant it works fine.
Can I have values changed in URL?
Thanks
output{
http {
format=\>"json"
http\_method=\>"post"
url=\>"[http://localhost:9200/my/associate/%{[oid]}/\_update?pretty](http://localhost:9200/my/associate/%25%7B%5Boid%5D%7D/_update?pretty)"
}
stdout{
codec =\> json
}
}

answering my own question .. for someone with similar issues
Path referred in url "[script][params][pos][employee\_oid]" is really how JSON data is created in "filter" including hierarchy
output{
http {
format=\>"json"
http\_method=\>"post"
url=\>"[http://localhost:9200/my/associate/%{[script][params][pos][employee\_oid]}/\_update?pretty](http://localhost:9200/my/associate/%25%7B%5Bscript%5D%5Bparams%5D%5Bpos%5D%5Bemployee_oid%5D%7D/_update?pretty)"
}
stdout{
codec =\> json
}
}
