Getting Data In

Index time mapping in inputs.conf

DataOrg
Builder

I have two fileds TIME and Last execution TIME.

In input.conf i have mapped TIME field to use a index time(_time) but in some cases it take the last execution TIME.

how to overcome this?

Can you please provide the actual config you have and also some sample data? I don't understand what you mean with mapping time in inputs.conf.

I think he means using indextime as timestamp in inputs.conf 🙂

That would still be controlled through props.conf and not inputs.conf, right?

yes you are right. I dont think we can control timestamp of event using inputs.conf.
