It sounds like your JSON files are pretty-printed. You are ingesting a line that just contains "}".

Use a [multiline codec](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/merge-multiline-json-into-single-line-json-using-codec-multiline-plugin/143175/2). That example consumes the whole file as one event. If your files have multiple JSON objects you might use a pattern like `^}`. It really depends on what your files look like.
