Is it possible to directly parse a json file from filebeats into elasticsearch? I have a small json file and I would like to have filebeats read in and ship directly to elasticsearch in json. json file -> filebeats => elasticsearch.

Parse / ship JSON file with filebeat

Hi Steffens,

Yeah they both seem to work really great!

I've run into another issue where filebeat stopped working however.

It was nice having it work while it lasted !
