Hi,  
i'm trying to pull data from salesforce to Elasticsearch through Logstash but i didn't find something similar to the schedule parameter of the JDBC plugin.

Any idea on how can i schedule the input? I can't run it manually every time.

Thanks

A [PR](https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-input-salesforce/pull/30) that adds scheduling to the plugin exists, but it has not been merged. You could build the plugin from that.

An alternative could be setting a cron job in the crontab where it launches manually every single pipeline?

Because i have different pipelines to run, and i will develop other in the future.
