Hi everybody!!!  
I have my output in config file:  
elasticsearch {  
host =\> "[myServer.com](http://myServer.com)"  
port =\> 9200  
index =\> "events”  
protocol =\> "http"  
}  
and I want to direct all logs with message "Logged in" and "Logged out" in "events\_logs" type document, and all the remaining documents in "rest\_logs".  
In the result I want 2 different types in my index:  
/myServer.com/events/events\_logs  
/myServer.com/events/rest\_logs  
How can I do this?  
THX to all!!!

Use a mutate filter to change the `type` field for the messages that should have a different type.

```
filter {
  if [message] =~ /Logged (in|out)/ {
    mutate {
      replace => ["type", "events_logs"]
    }
  }
}
```
