title: Sending filebeat outputs via http
body: <p>I have a filebeat instance reading a log file, and there is a remote http server that needs to receive the log outputs via rest api calls.</p>
  <p>For now I'm sending filebeat outputs to logstash, and make logstash do some filtering and passing the log the remote server (this is done using logstash http output plugin).</p>
  <p>Would it be possible to remove the logstash server in the middle, and make the filebeat to make api calls directly?</p>
