Getting Data In

TRANSFORMS-ROUTING filtering out source address

I have set up a TRANSFORMS-ROUTING and it is forwarding data to a 3rd party however, they do not want to see the source address the logs are coming from. Is there a quick way i can remove the source IP form the data being sent over?

the logs look like this-
timestamp 10.10.10.10 logs message blahhh foo blahhh foooooooo blahhh

props-
[host::hostA*]
TRANSFORMS-ROUTING = send_to_party

transforms -
[send_to_party]
REGEX = .
DEST_KEY = _SYSLOG_ROUTING
FORMAT = send_to_party_group_1

outputs-
[syslog:send_to_party_group_1]
server = 10.22.22.22:514
type = udp
syslogSourceType = sourcetype::none

You can try using SEDCMD in props.conf. Refer below documents:

i should have said we are doing this on a HWF so this wont work because SEDCMD will only work at index time.. right?
