Hi! I'm trying to collect the local splunk server Windows Application event logs.   I would like them in non_XML format.  In .../app/Splunk_TA_windows/inputs.conf stanza I added:   

[WinEventLog://Application]
index = splunk_server_app
source = WinEventLog:Application
sourcetype = WinEventLog
disabled = 0
renderXML = 0

I'm getting events but they are in XML format.  Using Splunk Enterprise version 8.1.4.

Any help wond be appreciated.  Thanks
