I have a java application that is writing out message as follows for example:  
00:00:13,950 INFO [com.companyurl.application] (bq-thread-pool-threads - 881) ABC response by ApplicationManager - received \<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?\> message 1 message unstructure message3 message4 message5

I need to extract the tags and post the whole message as is , for example

Tag1 : message  
Tag2 : message  
Tag3 : message3  
msg : Whole message as-is

I would grateful if someone can point me to an example of doing this.

Many thanks in advance...

Here is a [practical introduction to working with Logstash](https://www.elastic.co/blog/a-practical-introduction-to-logstash). If you want more detailed guidance you need to show real examples of what your logs look like and what the expected output is.

Many thanks Christian

I have actually been using your blog to learn more about logtash - it is VERY helpful. Many thanks.

Here is a sample of log that I am capturing using Filebeat and planning to send to logtash.

00:00:13,950 INFO [com.companyurl.application] (bq-thread-pool-threads - 881) ABC response by ApplicationManager - received \<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?\>  
\<sr:Response schemaVersion="3.0" xmlns:ds="[http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#](http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#)" xmlns:ns3="[http://www.companyurl/ResponseAndAlert](http://www.companyurl/ResponseAndAlert)" xmlns:ns4="[http://www.companyurl/S1SP](http://www.companyurl/S1SP)" xmlns:ns5="[http://www.companyurl/sm](http://www.companyurl/sm)" xmlns:sr="[http://www.companyurl/ServiceUserGateway](http://www.companyurl/ServiceUserGateway)"\>00:00:13,949 INFO [com.companyurl] (bq-thread-pool-threads - 881) COMP response by ServiceResponseController - received \<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?\>

\</sr:S1SPAlert\>  
\</sr:COMPAlert\>  
\</sr:COMPAlertMessage\>  
\</sr:Body\>  
\</sr:Response\>

I would like to extract for example ScheduleID value and post to ES the whole message from filebeast as-is plus the ScheduleID as a key (index??) and 38060 as the value of that key.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Many thanks for you help in advance...
