How to configure Latin accents?

Hi, I have accentes in my logs like ç, ã, õ and I need to configure the sourcetype to understand it right. I have tried the charset as LATIN and CSISOLATIN but it did not work. Any idea?

I have already figured out. The sourcetype also needs to be in the deployed app to apply the charset. Put it in a file called props.conf in the folder default. 🙂

Glad you solved it, but don't make changes to default files mate. Just create a local folder on your app (if there is non) , and a new file in it.
