Hello guys!

I need to send rabbitmq ack after event processed.

I tried set `ack => true` but acknowledges are sent before then event processing.

How can I do this?

```
input
{
    rabbit 
    {
        # my rabbit config
    }   
}

filter
{
    # does something
}

output
{
    # sends output to some place

    # SENDS ACK TO RABBIT MQ HERE
}

```

Thanks!

I do not think you can as outputs are decoupled from inputs. I think [this issue](https://github.com/elastic/logstash/issues/8514) describes the feature you are looking for.
