Issues with XML

[Vkryvor (Vlad Kryvor)]

Hey all,
I'm trying to pull information from a XML file. I've been reading about the xml filter and its abilities for the last week or so and it's still got me stumped. Here's my config file and the sample xml file I'm trying to read, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Vlad

Config file:

input {

file {

type => "xml"

path => "C:\Projects\ELK\xmltrials\log.xml"

start_position => beginning

ignore_older => 0

codec => multiline {

pattern => "</bookings>"

what => "next"

negate => "true"

# auto_flush_interval => 1

}

}

}

    filter {

    xml{

    source => "message"

    store_xml => false

    #target => "parsed"

    xpath => [

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/text()", "bookingId",

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/bookingName/bookingNameId/text()", "bookingNameId",

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/bookingName/firstName/text()", "firstName",

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/bookingName/lastName/text()", "lastName",

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/bookingName/lastName/text()", "lastName",

    "/bookings/booking/bookingId/bookingName/bookingNameItem/aircraftType/text()", "aircraftType"

    ]

    }

    # date {

    # match =>[ "timestamp" , "yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss" ]

    # }

    }
 
output {
   
  stdout {}
   elasticsearch {
    hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
  }
}

xml file:

Let's adjust the angle just a bit. Try changing it to below, specifically the pattern and what configs.

input {
  file {
    type => "xml"
    path => "C:\Projects\ELK\xmltrials\log.xml"
    start_position => beginning
    ignore_older => 0
    codec => multiline {
      pattern => "<bookings>"
      what => "previous"
      negate => "true"
    }
  }
}
