Specifying _type with Filebeat

Elastic Stack Beats
7

I've tried that, that's what I tried first based on the documentation (and just now again in case I was crazy).

I'm wondering if there is some other setting that is the issue here. I'm running it via

.\filebeat -once -v

to verify that it's working before I install it as a service and move it to production.

Here's a sample prospector, I have a bunch of them in my filebeat.yml. Is it fields_under_root that's causing the issue?

filebeat.prospectors:
    - 
     input_type: log
     multiline.match: after
     multiline.pattern: "^2"
     multiline.negate: true
     paths: 
      - "mypath"
     fields:
      document_type: mytype
      logsource: mylogsource
     fields_under_root: true
     close_eof: true
