Hello,

We have the following timestamp in our log but are unsure how to edit the props.conf to pick it up:

The format is MM/DD HH:MM YY

You may be looking for this:

TIME_FORMAT=%m%d%H%M%S
TIME_PREFIX=^\S+\s+

Note, the prefix may be wrong for other types of data you have. It just skips over the first word.
