 document_type: XX
 ignore_older: 96h
 close_older: 5m
 multiline:
  pattern: '<\/.*:XX>'
  negate: true
  match: before

filebeat paths config does not support regular expressions. It requires you to use a glob pattern. Unfortunately recursive glob pattern (often **) is not supported yet. In case you know the directory depths you can try to use something like `

`

  • /XX/XX/XX/XX/XX/DDI/20*//XXX/_Request.txt
    `
