I noticed that source is not available in the Batch mode unlike the monitor mode. I wonder if the same applies to sourcetypes? It wasn't explicitly mentioned in the docs.

I have used sourcetype with batch inputs. Here is an example that works
[batch://myinputdirectory]
move_policy = sinkhole
index = xyz
sourcetype = xyz

We upgraded but I believe the fix was from simplifying the transforms.conf. I found I didn't have the exact same environment on my test box. Thanks for you help.

Worked for me in several versions...
Do you have a typo somewhere? You might want to check everything one more time before you upgrade!
