Hi, My log looks like this

2021-01-13 15:30:12.543723914 node0:app:4786 APP\_ERR\_NUM Function = "DumpSample", Msg = "internal\_stats: Wed 2021-01-13 15:15:45 UTC", Val = 0

On visualising the data in the kibana dashboard timestamp being used is first one i.e 2021-01-13 15:30:12.543723914, but I want other timestamp to be considered during visualisation.

I am using grok filter as  
%{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:timestamp} %{WORD:node}:%{WORD:program}:%{INT:pid} %{WORD:traceType} Function = "%{WORD:functionName}", Msg = "%{WORD:msg}: %{WORD:day\_word} %{TIMESTAMP\_ISO8601:timestamp\_new} %{WORD:stamp}", %{WORD:value} = %{INT:count}

Please let me know how can I use other timestamp for visualisation.

||timestamp\_new|count|@timestamp|  
||2021-01-13 15:36:03|0|Jan 15, 2021 @ 23:02:57.090|  
||2021-01-13 15:36:06|0|Jan 15, 2021 @ 23:02:57.136|  
||2021-01-13 15:36:09|0|Jan 15, 2021 @ 23:02:57.136|
