Unable to send log files where newline character is not present

The log data which I am trying to send is a single line in file similar to the following
[{"empid" : "1", "empname": "anirban", "location":"India"}]

It is not having newline at the end.

How to work for this? If this type of data is generated by the application

Unfortunately, Filebeat requires a newline at the end of each log. Otherwise, it cannot tell if a line is finished or not. I suggest you add a newline character from a script.

Thanks for the response. But it would have been better if filebeat make an enhancement to read the files not having new line character at the end
