I have some logs like below which is an array within which there are two more arrays, I need to split them into individual events.
[{"nodes":[{"id":"node1","label":["Label1", "Label2"],"properties":"property1"},{"id":"node2","label":["Label1", "Label2"],"properties":"property2"}],"relationships":[{"id":"relation1","properties":"property1"},{"id":"relation2","properties":"property2"}]}]
Expected result:
```auto
{
"id" => "node1"
"label_0" => "Label1"
"label_1" => "Label2"
"properties" => "property1"
}
{
"id" => "node2"
"label_0" => "Label1"
"label_1" => "Label2"
"properties" => "property2"
}
{
"id" => "relation1"
"properties" => "property1"
}
{
"id" => "relation2"
"properties" => "property2"
}
```

You can split that event into multiple events using a split filter. You can expand an array into multiple fields using something like [this](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/parsing-an-array-in-ruby/121254/2).
