[spath]

number of characters to read from an XML or JSON event when auto extracting

extraction_cutoff = 10000

cat props.conf

[dynamoout]
TRUNCATE = 0
KV_MODE = json
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]*)
DATETIME_CONFIG = CURRENT

[source::/script_logs_mps/.]
CHECK_METHOD=entire_md5

Try this for your props.conf (on indexer/heavy forwarder)

[dynamoout]
TRUNCATE = 0
KV_MODE = json
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]*)(?=\{)
DATETIME_CONFIG = CURRENT

OR

[dynamoout]
TRUNCATE = 0
KV_MODE = json
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = json
DATETIME_CONFIG = CURRENT
