json
Overview
Takes in an event and parses its JSON data, including any nested fields.
| Option | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| source | No | String | The field in the Event that will be parsed. Default is message. |
| destination | No | String | The destination field of the parsed JSON. Defaults to the root of the Event. Cannot be "", /, or any whitespace-only String because these are not valid Event fields. |
| pointer | No | String | A JSON Pointer to the field to be parsed. There is no pointer by default, meaning the entire source is parsed. The pointer can access JSON Array indices as well. If the JSON Pointer is invalid then the entire source data is parsed into the outgoing Event. If the pointed-to key already exists in the Event and the destination is the root, then the pointer uses the entire path of the key. |
