Hi,

well the result is as follows:

```auto
logstash_1 | [2021-03-02T06:53:01,204][ERROR][logstash.agent] Failed to execute action {:action=>LogStash::PipelineAction::Create/pipeline_id:main, 
:exception=>"LogStash::ConfigurationError", :message=>"Expected one of [\\t\\r\\n], \"#\", \"-\", [0-9], [A-Za-z_], 
'\"', \"'\", \"}\" at line 18, column 7 (byte 244) after
 output {\n s3 {\n validate_credentials_on_root_bucket => false\n endpoint => \"http://nginx:9000\"\n bucket => \"rawdata\"\n codec => \"csv\"\n additional_settings => {\n ", :backtrace=>["/usr/share/logstash/logstash-core/lib/logstash/compiler.rb:32:in 
`compile_imperative'", "org/logstash/execution/AbstractPipelineExt.java:184:in `initialize'", 
"org/logstash/execution/JavaBasePipelineExt.java:69:in `initialize'", "/usr/share/logstash/logstash-
