Hi,  
Currently, we are using Metricbeat to send some metrics to Logstash.

The logstash details is configured in metricbeat.yml file:  
output.logstash:  
hosts: ["[logstashurl.com:5044](http://logstashurl.com:5044)"]

We want to send the metrics to a REST endpoint now instead of logstash. Is this possible using metricbeat or any other beats product?  
We do not want to push to logstash. We are generating a log file in the Linux machine, so may be some other beats product can read the log and push the JSON data to REST endpoint?

Thanks.

Not currently, you would need to send to Logstash and then send to your endpoint.
