I am using the Kafka Messaging Modular Input (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1817/ ) to get data in Splunk. The data coming over Kafka is JSON.
When it gets to splunk, the events look like this:
Tue Aug 25 16:07:37 UTC 2015 name="kafka_msg_received" event_id="" msg_body="{"type":"server.statistics","current-time":1440518856.847175,"server-start-time":1440518271.104432,"node-id":"bd308a2c-c291-5868-bd97-0b06c27b536b","content":{"reset-time":1440518271.367789}}"
... | spath input=msg_body does not generate any fields from the JSON.
How can I use spath to parse the JSON in these events?
