Finally, I was able to solve my problem :

1. I installed a Ubuntu Desktop VM on which I downloaded Logstash OSS with output-opensearch plugin embedded
2. I used the following command to export the plugin :

```sh
bin/logstash-plugin prepare-offline-pack --output logstash-output-opensearch.zip --overwrite logstash-output-opensearch

```

1. I installed the plugin on a Windows Logstash OSS 8.6.1 :

```sh
bin/logstash-plugin install file:///d:/BINAIRES/logstash-output-opensearch.zip

```

I described the process [here](https://github.com/vincent2mots/elk/tree/main/Logstash/opensearch)

A small gift : the link to the plugin, in case someone needs it : [here](https://github.com/vincent2mots/elk/blob/main/Logstash/opensearch/logstash-8.6.1-output-opensearch.zip)

Best regards,
