I have pasted my raw log samples in the above space. Can someone please help me to break these into multiple evnts using props.conf

I wish to break the lines before each timestamp (highlighted).

Thanks,

Ranjitha

Ugh. That's bad. While @richgalloway 's solution should work (you can try to be even more explicit with more precise definition of the timestamp format for linebreaking you'll be getting some ugly trailers to some of your events. Also since these are contents of a json field, some characters will most probably be escaped.

It would be best if you managed to:

1) Work with the source side so that you get your event in a more reasonable way (without all this json overhead) - preferred option

2) If you can't do that, use a pre-processing step in form of an external script/tool/whatever which will "unpack" those jsons and just leave you with raw data.

Try 

LINE_BREAKER = ()\d{4}-\d\d
