Define the target field for placing the decoded values. If this setting is not set, data will be stored at the root (top level) of the event.

For example, if you want data to be put under the document field:

    input {
      tcp {
        port => 4242
        codec => msgpack {
          target => "[document]"
        }
      }
    }
