When to use

This project will work with ALL versions of elasticsearch.

If you just want to send log data, i recommend you to use NetStash.

If you are using elasticsearch 7+ and need to log error details: I strongly recommend you to use https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-dotnet Apm Agent Dotnet. (I'm a contributor of this too)
