<p>There is a simplified option for ingesting log files with Elastic Agent.
The simplest input configuration to ingest the file
<code class="literal">/var/log/my-application/log-file.log</code> is:</p>
<div class="pre_wrapper lang-yaml">
<div class="console_code_copy" title="Copy to clipboard"></div>
<pre class="programlisting prettyprint lang-yaml">inputs:
- type: filestream <a id="CO19-1"></a><i class="conum" data-value="1"></i>
id: unique-id-per-input <a id="CO19-2"></a><i class="conum" data-value="2"></i>
paths: <a id="CO19-3"></a><i class="conum" data-value="3"></i>
- /var/log/my-application/log-file.log</pre>
</div>
<div class="calloutlist">
<table border="0" summary="Callout list">
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="5%">
<p><a href="#CO19-1"><i class="conum" data-value="1"></i></a></p>
</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">
<p>The input type must be <code class="literal">filestream</code>.</p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="5%">
<p><a href="#CO19-2"><i class="conum" data-value="2"></i></a></p>
</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">
<p>A unique ID for the input.</p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="5%">
<p><a href="#CO19-3"><i class="conum" data-value="3"></i></a></p>
</td>
<td align="left" valign="top">
<p>An array containing all log file paths.</p>
</td>
