Nested json parsing dynamic types

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

I am parsing json format log message and that structure is dynamic. Example
if i parse the log message some like {"file":"this is sample file"} parsing works fine and can search the log also in kibana.

Then tried to parse the log message something like {"file":{"name":"sample.txt","size":"32kb","type":"pdf"}}

This time it fails and throws exception like
MapperParsingException[failed to parse [file]]; nested: IllegalArgumentException[unknown property [name]]

Please advise how i can fix this issue and parse the dynamic nested json in the logstash.

Appreciate your help.
