Hello,  
i see this warning in filebeat logs:

```auto

```

```auto
filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
  json.keys_under_root: true
  json.overwrite_keys: true
  fields_under_root: true
  fields: {
    application: app01
  }
  paths:
    - "/var/log/app01/*.log"
  ignore_older: 48h

```

I’m using Python’s "loggin" library.

Is there any way to fixed this through filebeat?

Thanks for the help.

Regards,

Tips to Fix Formula Parse Errors

Check your formula inputs and make sure they're correct.  
Use the IFERROR function and display a different result if an error occurs.  
Check your spelling and make sure all the parentheses are in the right places.  
Make sure you're using the correct operators.

Greeting,  
Rachel Gomez
