Currently you can only export as grpc.  
It would be really nice to export as http also.

Hello, @hans and welcome to the Buildkite Community!  
Thank you for your feedback! As far as I know, we have no immediate plans of implementing support for HTTP exporter. However, you can open an issue regarding your request on the [Buildkite agent repository](https://github.com/buildkite/agent) to bring it to the attention of our Developer team.
