logstash pod is up and running with s3 plugin install with the image 6.8.23.

But failing to upload logs to s3 bucket, due to below error

```auto

```

I am trying to use role\_arn in s3 output configuration instead of access and secret key.

Upload will work with access and secret key not with role\_arn.
