You are never setting [@metadata][id], so this will result in every document having the same \_id. You are fetching data from 27 tables and writing every document from every table to 27 indexes with the same \_id.

It is hard to believe that you really want to do that. If you want to copy each table to a separate index then use conditionals ([this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/run-multiple-instance-of-logstash/92456/14) thread and [this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/how-to-create-multiple-indexs-with-multiple-input-in-logstash/264416/4) thread might help), or, probably better, use pipelines.conf to configure 27 pipelines to do it.
