Multiline pattern with grok filter

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

I am trying to use grok filter for getting multiline patterns in logstash. I've tried using the GRREDYDATA but it doesn't seem to work. Any other method I can opt for doing the multiline pattern match?

Would suggest you to test your grok pattern here - http://grokconstructor.appspot.com/

An example pattern like the one below worked fine for me:

%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:logtime}%{SPACE}%{LOGLEVEL:loglevel}%{SPACE}%{NOTSPACE:threadname}%{SPACE}%{NOTSPACE:useremail}%{SPACE}(%{JAVAFILE:filename}:%{NUMBER:linenumber})%{SPACE}-%{SPACE}%{GREEDYDATA:logmessage}
