Hello,

I have a CSV file and am trying to read it using my logstash configuration. Everything works great for each row. It doesn't work if we have newline character (\n) in a value surrounded by double quotes.

Example:  
EN,Address,MD,PHYSCN,OO,"  
ABCD",ACTIVE

Note: Notice the new line between double quotes.

Please let me know how to make it ignore the newline within double quotes using CSV filter.

Thanks.
