Issue with websphere sourcetype add-on

Hi, We recently installed splunk add on for websphere source type "ibm:was:serverIndex" for websphere logs.

When manually adding a log file using add data option, splunk is picking up and setting the sourcetype automatically and extracting all the fields. See [1]

But when configuring inputs.conf file using the same source types, it is failing to extract the fields. See [2]

Please advise on what should be done to auto extract all the fields.
