JSON

Observer

I have a JSON file with .json extension which has a complete one line unstructured json. any events gets added to the json array with the same one line json every 5 minutes.

Gone through multiple responses related to duplicate events for JSON, this is what my configurations looks both on search head and indexer props.conf , but still I can see duplicate events when searching on search head
