I am trying to ingest a doc format file into Splunk but getting it in 00\x00c\x00\x00\x00 format.
Can someone help please . I am aware that .txt format is supported but .doc/.docx format is needed.

Hi @splunkitsipoc,
Splunk isn't a content management system for documents, but you could try to follow this guideline to try to ingest word documents if it solves your problem: https://www.splunk.com/en_us/blog/tips-and-tricks/splunking-a-microsoft-word-document-for-metadata-a...
