Hi,  
I've a some fields in my log message. The above is the example of how loglevel field is duplicated and .keyword is added to it. I don't have any idea of how it happened, if anyone know about this please share the idea of how to fix it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Dharani,

It's in your Elasticsearch mapping. You don't necessarily need to fix it.

What issues are you seeing because of this?

Thanks,
