choosing different splunk hec endpoints

We are in need to choose/use another splunk hec endpoint which is impossible at the moment.
We do need at least use the splunk hec raw endpoint for sending data which need to be processed in splunk before they are entering the splunk index.
e.g. composing multiple records that belong to a java stack trace to one line inside splunk.
This is important for CICS liberty messages.log which are send as Generic zFS Files.
Or is there another possibility to send those logs to splunk so that stack traces are collected as one message?

    Thank you for opening the requirement with IBM. We have just delivered via a PTF the capability to stream liberty log files via Common Data Provider. Will this help solve the requirement? https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zcdp/2.1.0?topic=whats-new-in-version-210-may-2021
