Hi Team,

we have production environment where we are getting below error while filebeat is sending logs to Elastic output, so kindly help us in getting resolve this issue.

2019-11-26T08:59:14.977Z ERROR elasticsearch/client.go:317 Failed to perform any bulk index operations: 413 Request Entity Too Large:

413 Request Entity Too Large
# 413 Request Entity Too Large

* * *
openresty/1.15.8.1

We have tried the options from both filebeat and elastic side but there is no use, still we are getting same issue.

Filebeat:- bulk\_max\_size: 1  
Elastic:- **http.max\_header\_size: 16kb, http.max\_content\_length: 500mb**
