Hi @muez,
try this props.conf

[your_sourcetype]
TIME_PREFIX = \d\d,
TIME_FORMAT = %m/%d/%y,%H:%M:%S

If you haven't Splunk 8.0.1, remember to update datetime.xml following the Splunk Support instructions ( https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/ReleaseNotes/FixDatetimexml2020?elqTrackId=29cfe... ).

Ciao.
Giuseppe

Hi @muez,
where do you used the props.conf? it must be on Indexer or (when present) on Heavy Forwarder not on Universal Forwarder and then you have to restart Splunk.

Hi @muez,
your data seems to be structured data, do they come from a csv?
In this case, put props.conf on Universal Forwarder that ingests csv.

Ciao.
