## Multi-line log aggregation FAQ | ||||||||||
|
||||||||||
**1. When should I use manual multi-line rules vs. automatic multi-line detection?** | ||||||||||
|
||||||||||
If you know the format of your logs, you should use manual multi-line rules for more precise control. | ||||||||||
If you are sending lots of multi-line logs and you are unsure of their format or don't have the means to configure all sources individually, you should use automatic multi-line detection. | ||||||||||
|
||||||||||
**2. What happens when a multi-line pattern doesn't match any logs?** | ||||||||||
|
||||||||||
All non-JSON log lines will be processed individually as separate log entries. | ||||||||||
All JSON-formatted log lines will be treated as a single line of logs, and only the first valid JSON format will enter the intake; the rest will be dropped. | ||||||||||
