Hello!

I have a log file with the following pattern:

But i need to understand how can i set up in the Settings -> Source types -> (sourcetype name create) to make this event highlighted. Here is how i tried to set up (but didn't work):

The raw text is:

{"message":"Nothing to process in worldpay-prd-scheme-event-store-queue-dlq","context":[],"level":200,"level_name":"INFO","channel":"app","datetime":{"date":"2022-08-30 13:06:13.999247","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"UTC"},"extra":{"uid":"e527f53"}}

 

the sourcetype setup is:

Hi @uchoavaz,

no this is possible only for json format, not for raw text.

ciao.

Hi @uchoavaz,

could you better describe what do you mean with "highlighted"?

In a sourcetype you define many things: format, fields, aliases, etc... but there isn't the possibility to highlight a parte of an event.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
