Hi,

How would I anonymize the following example:

BankName=South!@Indian!@Bank

I want everything to the right of the equal sign to be removed/masked/covered

Pseudo example based on the docs to get you started. Would need a better data sample of full log events to give you a more accurate regex.

props.conf

[my-spec]
TRANSFORMS-anonymize = my-anonymizer

transforms.conf

[my-anonymizer]
REGEX = (?m)^(.*)BankName=\w+!@\w+!@\w+(.*)$
FORMAT = $1BankName=########$2
DEST_KEY = _raw
