GROK pattern to collect whole exception stacktrace

Hi All,
Below config file not capturing complete stacktrace, it is only collecting single line. Any suggestion how can collect whole stacktrace.

filter {

      #If log line contains tab character followed by 'at' then we will tag that entry as stacktrace
      if [message] =~ "\tat" {
        grok {
          match => ["message", "^(\tat)"]
          add_tag => ["stacktrace"]
        }
      }

      grok {
      match => [ "message",
               "%{DATESTAMP_EVENTLOG:timestamp}%{SPACE}%{LOGLEVEL:log_level}%{SPACE}%{WORD:method}%{SPACE}%{WORD:class_name}%{SPACE} (%{DATA:exceptiondetail}\n\t\n*%{GREEDYDATA:extralines})"]
      }
}

This is my exception stacktrace

If you are using a file input use a multiline codec on an input. The documentation has an example of merging lines from a stacktrace.

If you are using filebeat do the multiline processing in the beat.
