Hi there,

I'm using ELK 7.6. I am ingesting logs from S3 buckets via SQS. These S3 logs are piped using Firehose from Cloudwatch logs.

I have encountered Unknown Field, logEvents, in my indices.

What it contains inside is this:

There is no fix number of message fields inside each logEvents field.  
How do I pattern this index such that I can search for the logs inside the message field?  
Pls guide me patiently as I'm new at this. 😁

Thanks,  
ck
