Sending json events and log events to HEC in using Java Logback, and Log4j matches the format found in application log files.

How do I send JSON data to Splunk hec and not see the fields logger, message, severity, thread, time in there?

For example, if my json object is {id:1234, type:issue, {field1:Val1, field2:Val2}},

how do i get it into Splunk HEC without seeing it in my index as

 

 

{
  logger:SPLUNK,
  severity:INFO,
  thread:main,
  time:160486996.996,
  message:{id:1234, type:issue, {field1:Val1, field2:Val2}}
}
