We are using this below grok pattern :

grok {  
match =\> {  
message =\> "^%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:timestamp\_match}\s\*%{WORD:system}\s\*%{LOGLEVEL:loglevel}\s\*%{SYSLOGHOST:session\_id}\s\*%{SYSLOGHOST:req\_id}\s\*%{WORD:user}\s\*%{WORD:channel}\s\*-\s\*%{USERNAME:rqrs}\s\*%{GREEDYDATA:message\_text}\s\*"

```
    } 

```

We need to fetch path (path=/LCLG/lclg/pending-activation-status) from messege\_text field (messege\_text field created in Grok Pateern) and add it in a new field "path" .
