Explanation:

When using a directory monitor input, specific source types can be selectively overridden using the props.conf file.According to the Splunk documentation1, ''You can specify a source type for data based on its input and source. Specify source type for an input. You can assign the source type for data coming from a specific input, such as /var/log/. If you use Splunk Cloud Platform, use Splunk Web to define source types. If you use Splunk Enterprise, define source types in Splunk Web or by editing the inputs.conf configuration file.'' However, this method is not very granular and assigns the same source type to all data from an input.To override the source type on a per-event basis, you need to use the props.conf file and the transforms.conf file2.The props.conf file contains settings that determine how the Splunk platform processes incoming data, such as how to segment events, extract fields, and assign source types2.The transforms.conf file contains settings that modify or filter event data during indexing or search time2.You can use these files to create rules that match specific patterns in the event data and assign different source types accordingly2.For example, you can create a rule that assigns a source type of apache_error to any event that contains the word ''error'' in the first line2.
