Hi Dadoonet
can you please explain me in detail.

It is failing to parse the message as xml. What does the message look like? Comment out the remove_field until you are sure things are working correctly.

Hi Badger,
if i uncommented remove_field it is passing all the xml file as in message, i need to display/split only those filtered values in kibana

Thanks!

Once again, what does the message look like? Either paste from the JSON tab in Kibana/Discover or add stdout { codec => rubydebug } }
