Hello,  
I'm trying to configure my filebeat.yml file with a pipeline that I created, and it's not working.  
I created the pipeline using Ingest Node Pipelines on the ElasticSearch UI.  
I get this error:  
'pipeline with id does not exist'  
This is my configuration file:  
'''  
cloud.id: "CLOUDID"  
cloud.auth: "CLOUDAUTY"

# ---------------------------- Elasticsearch Output ----------------------------

output.elasticsearch:

# Array of hosts to connect to.

hosts: ["[https://HOST.aws.found.io:9243](https://HOST.aws.found.io:9243)"]  
username: "USERNAME"  
password: "PASSWORD"  
pipeline: "Pipeline"  
'''

This is the error from the filebeat log:

'''  
Cache:publisher.EventCache{m:common.MapStr(nil)}} (status=400): {"type":"illegal\_argument\_exception","reason":"pipeline with id [pipeline] does not exist"}  
'''

I already tried to run filebeat setup, and I check with Dev Tools the pipeline, and it seemed ok, like I configured with with grok debugger:

GET \_ingest/pipeline/Pipeline

What else can I do?  
I'm working on ubuntu 18, with filebeat, i'm not using log stash.

Hello,

Welcome to this forum! 🥳

Have you tried creating the ingest pipeline with lowercase characters only? It is possible that FileBeat converts the uppercase `Pipeline` into the lowercase `pipeline` as noted in the error log.

Best regards
