Hi,

I configured file beats to look into a folder and push the data to logstash.

How to use multiline to move whole file once.?

it sounds more like missuse. If multiline is used like this, the complete file will be buffered in memory and truncated to configured size limits (I think 10MB by default).

Creating a regex that always matches a line '.*' might do the trick. But then 1 file == 1 event in logstash.
