I have a question. Is it possible to add the options of multiline in the filebeat module ?

I have this config at the moment

```auto
- module: system
  # Syslog
  syslog:
    enabled: true

```

Hi @flochon,

You can override prospector settings, have a look at [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/6.2/advanced-settings.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/6.2/advanced-settings.html)

I'm wondering, why do you need to do that?

Best regards
