I'm new to ELK and trying to input 3rd party REST API to Logstash to feed data into it. I'm getting TypeError: no implicit conversion of nil into string.
I'm using http_input_poller plugin to feed data. Here is configuration for it.
input {
http_poller {
urls => {
test1 => "https://example.com/api/now/table/sys_user?sysparm_limit=1"
}
request_timeout => 60
# Supports "cron", "every", "at" and "in" schedules by rufus scheduler
schedule => { cron => "* * * * * UTC"}
codec => "json"
# A hash of request metadata info (timing, response headers, etc.) will be sent here
metadata_target => "http_poller_metadata"
}
}
output {
stdout {
codec => rubydebug
}
}
I'm using this command to run
sudo ./logstash -f logstash_http_poller.conf --path.settings /etc/logstash/ --path.data
I'm getting this error message
masteradmin@usr:/usr/share/logstash/bin$ sudo ./logstash -f logstash_http_poller.conf --path.settings /etc/logstash/ --path.data
