# Agents and ingestion tools

Historically, many multiple popular agents and ingestion tools have worked with Elasticsearch OSS, such as Beats, Logstash, Fluentd, FluentBit, and OpenTelemetry. OpenSearch aims to continue to support a broad set of agents and ingestion tools, but not all have been tested or have explicitly added OpenSearch compatibility.

Previously, an intermediate compatibility solution was available. OpenSearch had a setting that instructed the cluster to return version 7.10.2 rather than its actual version.

The override main response setting `compatibility.override_main_response_version` is deprecated from OpenSearch version 1.x and removed from OpenSearch 2.0.0. This setting is no longer supported for compatibility with legacy clients.

If you use clients that include a version check, such as versions of Logstash OSS or Filebeat OSS between 7.x - 7.12.x, enable the setting:

```json
PUT _cluster/settings
{
  "persistent": {
    "compatibility": {
      "override_main_response_version": true
    }
  }
}
```

[Just like any other setting]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/configuration/), the alternative is to add the following line to `opensearch.yml` on each node and then restart the node:

```yml
compatibility.override_main_response_version: true
```
-->
Logstash OSS 8.0 introduces a breaking change where all plugins run in ECS compatibility mode by default. If you use a compatible [OSS client](#compatibility-matrices) you must override the default value to maintain legacy behavior:

```yml
ecs_compatibility => disabled
```

## Downloads

You can download the OpenSearch output plugin for Logstash from [OpenSearch downloads](https://opensearch.org/downloads.html). The Logstash output plugin is compatible with OpenSearch and Elasticsearch OSS (7.10.2 or lower).

These are the latest versions of Beats OSS with OpenSearch compatibility. For more information, see the [compatibility matrices](#compatibility-matrices).

- [Filebeat OSS 7.12.1](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/filebeat-oss-7-12-1)
- [Metricbeat OSS 7.12.1](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/metricbeat-oss-7-12-1)
- [Packetbeat OSS 7.12.1](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/packetbeat-oss-7-12-1)
- [Heartbeat OSS 7.12.1](https://elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/heartbeat-oss-7-12-1)
- [Winlogbeat OSS 7.12.1](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/winlogbeat-oss-7-12-1)
- [Auditbeat OSS 7.12.1](https://elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/auditbeat-oss-7-12-1)

Some users report compatibility issues with ingest pipelines on these versions of Beats. If you use ingest pipelines with OpenSearch, consider using the 7.10.2 versions of Beats instead.
