Unknown setting '"index"' for elasticsearch

I'm new to the elastic search concept. I followed multiple tutorials to install but I'm getting these errors:
Unknown setting '"index"', '"host'" and "'document_type'" for elasticsearch

The output of
sudo -Hu root /usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash --path.settings /etc/logstash/

returns:

Here is the content of the logstash.conf file:

input {
  jdbc {
    jdbc_connection_string => "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/archief"
    # The user we wish to execute our statement as
    jdbc_user => "root"
    jdbc_password => "pswxxx"
    # The path to our downloaded jdbc driver
    jdbc_driver_library => "/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java-8.0.15.jar"
    jdbc_driver_class => "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
    # our query
    statement => "SELECT * FROM archief"
    }
  }
output {
  stdout { codec => json_lines }
  elasticsearch {
  "hosts" => ["localhost:9200"]
  "index" => "archief"
  }
}

I've moved this into the Logstash forum since it is more likely to get an answer here than in the Elasticsearch one.

Good idea! tnx
