Hi,  
filebeat config:

```auto
filebeat.inputs:
- type: log
enabled: true
paths:
    - D:\elastic_stack\testLog\*
    - D:\elastic_stack\LogWal\*

```

So in logstash i want for the first path did the split of the message and add fields like i did:

```auto
input {
    beats {
	    type => "test"
        port => "5044"
    }
}

filter {
    mutate {
      split => {"message" => "|"}
      add_field => { "date" => "%{[message][0]}" }
      add_field => { "version" => "%{[message][1]}" }
      }

```

for the second path i dont want to split message or adding field or somthing i just want this bloc in output:

```auto
output{
if ("Exception" in [message] or "EXCEPTION" in [message]) {
    email {
    to => "aa@gmail.com"
    via => 'smtp'
	address => 'smtp.gmail.com'
    domain => 'smtp.gmail.com'
	from => 'jo@gmail.com'
    authentication => "plain"
    username => "jo@gmail.com"
	password => "pass"
	subject => 'Alert '
	body => "%{message}"
	port => 25
	use_tls => true
    }
    }
}

```

Sending email it works if i remove the split and the split it works i just want to keep them and make the split work just for the first path and the sending email just for second path.

Thanks in advance.
