Getting Data In

Can you index certain filetypes contained within a zipped file?

I've seen older answers that state you cannot ingest only certain files from a zip file. Say, only .csv files from a zip file that also contains .log files. I wanted to make sure this hasn't been updated via a special way of writing an input stanza.

I do understand you can achieve something similar with transforms and matching on data within the stream, but the data we are working with is huge and that would add another week onto the ingestion I fear.

Is the only option to repackage the zip?
