Hi @monawwer ,
You cannot use mvexpand in props.conf. The mvexpand command is a transforming search command, and props.conf is only used for field extractions for search-time operations.
The only search-time operations you can enter in props.conf are: eval, extract, fieldalias, report, kv_mode and lookup.

What are you trying to achieve? Do you extract a multivalue field and want to expand it on indextime?

Can you name an example?

Yes, I want to expand multivalue field on index time. For example:

Object Color
car black

red

Red is in color field.

Output should be :

Object Colour
car black

car red
