Thank you for your reply. I have deleted that line as you suggested. 🙂

I have run into another issue pertaining to the same tutorial, and I have posted about it [here](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/json-parse-error-original-data-now-in-message-field/174790). If you have time, will you also kindly take a look there and give me some advice? Thank you very much in advance!
