In this case review inputs.conf sourcetype and change it if you use default pretrained :

"The source types marked with an asterisk ( * ) use the INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS attribute, which sets other attributes in props.conf to specific defaults and requires special handling to forward to another Splunk platform instance. See Forward fields extracted from structured data files."
