How to edit my configuration to recognize the timestamp in CSV data?

Hi Splunkers,

I have a structure data on .csv that contains the follows fields:
2014/10/01-07:16:31,0.121,1.1,S,0.0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,S

2014/10/01-07:16:31 - it's my timestamp.

I tried add data on Splunk but I can't recognise the timestamp with my regex:

My regex is:

\d{4}\/\d{2}\/\d{2}\-\d{2}\:\d{2}\:\d{2}

I verified on http://www.regexr.com/.

this is my props.conf

TIME_PREFIX = \d{4}\/\d{2}\/\d{2}\-\d{2}\:\d{2}\:\d{2}
FIELD_DELIMITER = ,
FIELD_QUOTE = '
INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = csv
KV_MODE = none
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
category = Structured
disabled = false
pulldown_type = true

How can I edit my configuration to recognize the timestamp?

TIME_PREFIX tells Splunk what to skip/ignore when searching for a timestamp. Because your events start with a timestamp, you do not need that setting at all so leave it out and try this:

TIME_FORMAT=%y/%m/%d-%H:%M:%S
