I use ELK 5.0.1 + Filebeat 5.0.1. On my server I have 2 kind of prospectors : - json logs - text logs Currently, I configure Filebeat to send the json logs directly to elasticsearch. This works fine. Now I want to send the text logs to logstash to parse them with a grok filter. In the Filebeat configuration, I don't find how to use 2 output for this 2 prospectors. Is it possible ? How can I do this ? ---

It is not possible to route the events to different outputs. All events go to all outputs. So you can send it all to Logstash and then route the events from there. ---
