I am trying to get a json formated file into splunk. The file is being forwarded from a UF with monitor, it contains data from aircrafts (ADS-B Data). This is a sample:

]
}

 

How can I get every line (starting with "hex") in a seperate event and all fields extracted?

Idealy the timestamp of every event is the one from the header line 1 named "now".
