The precise sourcetype setting when importing ESET logs

I currently use the ESET Remote Administrator.
However, I can not divide log fields with sourcetype.
Please tell me the precise sourcetype setting when importing ESET logs.

i am actually not getting your question..
when we ingest/on board log files, on the inputs.conf file, we can assign any source/sourcetype as per our convenience.. the standard log files like linux/windows may have some standards as they are common.

for log files like ESET app, if i am in your place, i would simply assign "eset" as the sourcetype and the file's fullpath would be the source.
