I have an issue by sending the format of my logs to elasticsearch, I've got my logs in a file, they are getting into the file in this format:

Apr 5 16:11:01 T30\_PABLO (2018-04-05T14:11:01) http-proxy[2072]: msg\_id="1AFF-0021" Allow 1-Trusted 4-Embou tcp 192.168.1.75 [HERE GOES MY PUBLIC IP ADDRES SORRY FOR NO POSTING IT IN HERE] 43832 80 msg="ProxyAllow: HTTP Request categories" proxy\_act="HTTP-Client.Standard.1" cats="Uncategorized" op="GET" dstname="[pablo.com](http://pablo.com)" arg="/api/v1/third/flushdata" (HTTP-proxy-00)

Is there a way to send it in a specified format or not i dunno if it is and someone can post a guide about how to do it or just explain it to me it would be much helpfull

Thanks

Pablo
