I want to create multiple index in filebeat by string in message

```auto
        - indices:
        - index: "billingproxy-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}"
          regexp:
                 message: '(billingproxy & \(squid-1\))'

    - index: "proxyauditlog-%(+yyyy.MM.dd)"
          regexp:
                 message: '(billingproxy & tag_audit_log)'

```

but index is not created.  
I think syntax for regexp is wrong.
