Hi, I'm using Filebeat and its working great, now I need to change it configuration a little bit and I'm not sure how. I want Filebeat to harvest different files, each file with a different "include\_lines" configuration. This is my filebeat.yml: [http://pastebin.com/xaHF24jw](http://pastebin.com/xaHF24jw) I want that for - C:\nexperience\logs\handsets\syslog.\*.log include\_lines: ["Formulating"] and for the other two: include\_lines: ["ERROR ", "WARN "] All the other configurations are the same for both. Thanks in advance! ---

If you want to use different include\_lines, you have specific a new prospector for the different paths. It will mean in your case to duplicate the common configuration options in the prospectors. ---
