Hello, I'm trying to do something very simple I think but I fail to understand how it can be done. So I ask for your help, my setup is the following: Filebeat sends IIS logs through Logstash towards Elastic. Having also a Kibana and ingest node. In advance we have loaded the IIS mapping and everything is being mapped perfectly. I would like to create a mapping that can set the different folders names to different fields that are going to be based on our websites real names. So for example we have in IIS a website that is named Test Website 1 and if we look at logfilepath it is D:\LogsIIS\W3SVC6\somelognumber.log I would like to take W3SVC6 from the log file path and map it to a field named Test Website 1 Thank you. ---

Alright this can be marked as solved, we added the cs-host field on the IIS side and then after just grok-ed the new field and all is perfect. ---
