How to import elasticsearch logs into Splunk?

Hi

We have log from an Elasticsearch syslog. And we want to import these logs into Splunk.
How can i do that ?

I would have done like this:
- modify the /opt/splunk/etc/deployment-apps/cg93_all_uf_syslog_inputs/local/file and add
[udp://number_port]
sourcetype = elastic
index = switch_logs

Is that correct?

Thanks

Sham
