Hello,

Is it possible to configure a file beat on a path whose name varies (current date)?

paths:

/opt/zimbra/log/access\_log.2020-03-12  
I think so but not found how to do it: 🙂

Regards,

@Youssef_SBAI cela ne devrait pas etre un probleme, lorsque que filebeat a lu les logs il ne va pas les relire.
