Decode CSV fieldsedit
This functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.
The decode_csv_fields processor decodes fields containing records in
comma-separated format (CSV). It will output the values as an array of strings.
This processor only works with log inputs.
Exampleedit
- decode_csv_fields:
fields:
message: decoded.csv
separator: ","
ignore_missing: false
overwrite_keys: true
trim_leading_space: false
fail_on_error: true
Configuration settingsedit
Elastic Agent processors execute before ingest pipelines, which means that your processor configurations cannot refer to fields that are created by ingest pipelines or Logstash. For more limitations, refer to What are some limitations of using processors?
