Hi, I am trying to generate various _types in the same index_ based on various csv. As I don´t know the amount of csv, making an input for each one would be non-viable.  
So does anyone know how to generate types with the _names of the files_ and in those, introduce the csv respectively?

```auto
input {
  file {
    path => "/home/user/Documents/data/*.csv"
    start_position => "beginning"
    sincedb_path => "/dev/null"
  } 
}

filter { 
	
	csv {
		separator => ","
		skip_header => "true"
		autodetect_column_names => true
		autogenerate_column_names => true
	}
}

output {
   elasticsearch {
     hosts => "http://localhost:9200"
     index => "final_index"

  }

stdout {}

}

```

Thank you so much
