Getting Data In

Why isn't my JSON string breaking into events?

Hello all! I'm trying to break this huge JSON string into multiple events into Splunk. For some reason, my props.conf configs aren't working. It returns the entire large JSON string.

Props.conf:

[locu_philly]
KV_Mode = json
LINE_BREAKER = \{(.*?)\},
NO_BINARY_CHECK = 1
Truncate = 0
SHOULD_LINEMERGER = false

JSON Sample:

try including a timestamp for each event,I Think that will help,as Splunk undestands or breaks mostly by timestamp
