[Ganesh2303 (Ganesh)]

HI Team,
I'm picking my logs using filebeat when i hardcode my path beats pick it properly without any trouble instead of that if i define the path with regular expression it fail to pick the file and keep on posting start next scan message in screen. Can anyone help me on this

•  paths:
     - /XX/XX/XX/XX/XX/DDI/20[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]/[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]/XXX/*_Request.txt
   document_type: XX
   ignore_older: 96h
   close_older: 5m
   multiline:
    pattern: '<\/.*:XX>'
    negate: true
    match: before

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