In my windows computer, i am using filebeat to read the content of the application server logs. On the same machine, In the registry field i have also store the version of the application. I want to combine these two data on the same index

First off all is it possible to read a specific registry field content with filebeat or another tool like filebeat?

Then, is it possible to combine this two different data on the same index?

Thank you

Welcome to our community! 😃

There's no native way to read the registry with the Elastic Stack that I am aware of. You might need to write a script to pull the info into a file, then parse it from there.
