Solved: Re: More than one DEST_KEY - Splunk Community

Getting Data In

Can I use more than one DEST_KEY? For example

DEST_KEY=_MetaData:Index,MetaData:Sourcetype
FORMAT=sourcetype::VPN,index::authent

I currently have some VPN logs coming in through syslog that I would like to route to an index, and rename the sourcetype.
