Hello everyone out there!
I recently started using ELK so sorry if my question silly.

Grok filter for logstash config:

filter {

The issue i have is, as can be seen from output in kibana, many of my rows does not have value. One of the row has values which i want to get populated for all the rows depending on condition. Can someone please help me here.

Extreme thanks in advance.

Please edit your post and format the configuration snippet as preformatted text so it doesn't get mangled.

Thanks for quick reply and sorry for not doing it correctly first time itself.

Only one of the three grok expressions you have are extracting Environment and Trait_Value fields so that could be one reason, but without seeing the full event (expand an event and copy paste from the JSON tab) and the log line that it came from it's impossible to go into further detail.

Magnus, you are right, those fields are extracted only in one of three grok expressions. The reason is as you can see from log file, only one line in the file has those values. Other lines dont have. So my question would be is there way to append the custom tag(trait_value, Environment) which i am creating in one of the grok expression to append to results (match) of second and third grok filter extraction.

Also sorry did not understand what u meant by expand an event and copy paste from JSON tab.

I don't believe that's possible.

Also sorry did not understand what u meant by expand an event and copy paste from JSON tab.

In Kibana's Discover view you can click on a triangle to the left of the event to show the whole event. There are two tabs there, one being the JSON tab that shows the raw JSON event. Very useful for debugging.

Thanks Magnus, thought so that it wont be possible so i used alternative with condition in my grok based on source file and then add custom fileds or tags as required. But thanks for taking time out to look into my issue.
