This pull request does not have a backport label.
If this is a bug or security fix, could you label this PR @vishaangelova? 🙏.
For such, you'll need to label your PR with:

  • The upcoming major version of the Elastic Stack
  • The upcoming minor version of the Elastic Stack (if you're not pushing a breaking change)

To fixup this pull request, you need to add the backport labels for the needed
branches, such as:

  • backport-8./d is the label to automatically backport to the 8./d branch. /d is the digit
  • backport-active-all is the label that automatically backports to all active branches.
  • backport-active-8 is the label that automatically backports to all active minor branches for the 8 major.
  • backport-active-9 is the label that automatically backports to all active minor branches for the 9 major.

@vishaangelova vishaangelova added backport-active-9 Automated backport with mergify to all the active 9.[0-9]+ branches and removed backport-9.0 Automated backport to the 9.0 branch backport-9.1 Automated backport to the 9.1 branch labels Oct 2, 2025

@pierrehilbert, could you direct me to someone from your team who can review this PR? If the proposed changes for the Kafka output are valid for Filebeat, would the same information also apply for the rest of the beats? (If yes, I’d also like to update the Kafka output docs for the other beats in this PR.)
