How to configure line breaking for my sample JSON event?

[manderson7]

I've been through this thread: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/295142/line-breaker-in-single-line-printed-json-doc.html
without any success.

I have JSON data coming in as 1 event, and I need it broken up into the individual events seen on the page.

{"id":588699,"name":null,"status":{"id":2963,"name":"Handled"},"priority":{"id":2873,"name":"Urgent"},"queue":{"id":2144,"name":"Default"},"description":null,"assigned_to":{"id":4120,"username":"user4@company.com"},"asset_list":{"id":4777,"name":"Info Security Threat_Splunk"},"advisory":{"id":199003,"advisory_identifier":"SA74447","title":"Blue Coat Security Analytics Multiple Vulnerabilities","released":"2016-12-21T15:24:53Z","modified_date":"2016-12-21T15:24:53Z","criticality":2,"criticality_description":"Highly critical","solution_status":4,"solution_status_description":"Partial Fix","where":1,"where_description":"From remote","cvss_score":10.0,"cvss_vector":"(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C/E:U/RL:TF/RC:C)","type":0,"is_zero_day":false},"created":"2016-12-21T15:33:09Z","pretty_id":79,"custom_score":null,"last_updated":"2016-12-21T15:40:28Z"},{"id":584252,"name":null,"status":{"id":2963,"name":"Handled"},"priority":{"id":2873,"name":"Urgent"},"queue":{"id":2144,"name":"Default"},"description":null,"assigned_to":{"id":4118,"username":"user3@company.com"},"asset_list":{"id":4657,"name":"PSS Middleware Environment"},"advisory":{"id":195840,"advisory_identifier":"SA73221","title":"Oracle Solaris Multiple Third Party Components Multiple Vulnerabilities","released":"2016-10-19T14:20:02Z","modified_date":"2016-12-19T14:42:30Z","criticality":2,"criticality_description":"Highly critical","solution_status":2,"solution_status_description":"Vendor Patched","where":1,"where_description":"From remote","cvss_score":10.0,"cvss_vector":"(AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C/E:U/RL:OF/RC:C)","type":0,"is_zero_day":false},"created":"2016-12-20T13:43:24Z","pretty_id":76,"custom_score":null,"last_updated":"2017-01-11T19:47:09Z"},"

So Secunia is dropping a comma in between each event, and I've read that makes Splunk not read the data as _json. Is that accurate? I've tried regex to use the close bracket, comma and open bracket, without luck.
I also need help in getting the timestamp to map to the created timestamp in the event.
Any help you can provide will be useful. Thank you.

Yes, I can edit the data, I'm bringing it in via a bash script. Though pulling that comma out via sed might be tricky.

Please open a support case with Secunia encouraging them to adhere to the strict JSON standard. The standard not complicated, and what Splunk parses without issue.

If more customers complained to their vendors, there'd be less need for workarounds like this.

check out jq then. I have a enhancement request in to see if we can incorporate some of its magic into the json pipeline.
