Platform Observability

@timestamp

Event timestamp.

date

data_stream.dataset

Data stream dataset.

constant_keyword

data_stream.namespace

Data stream namespace.

constant_keyword

data_stream.type

Data stream type.

constant_keyword

ecs.version

ECS version this event conforms to. ecs.version is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices — which may conform to slightly different ECS versions — this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.

keyword

event.action

The action captured by the event. This describes the information in the event. It is more specific than event.category. Examples are group-add, process-started, file-created. The value is normally defined by the implementer.

keyword

event.category

This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.category represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on event.category:process yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to event.type, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.

keyword

event.dataset

Name of the dataset. If an event source publishes more than one type of log or events (e.g. access log, error log), the dataset is used to specify which one the event comes from. It’s recommended but not required to start the dataset name with the module name, followed by a dot, then the dataset name.

keyword

event.ingested

Timestamp when an event arrived in the central data store. This is different from @timestamp, which is when the event originally occurred. It’s also different from event.created, which is meant to capture the first time an agent saw the event. In normal conditions, assuming no tampering, the timestamps should chronologically look like this: @timestamp < event.created < event.ingested.

date

event.kind

This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the highest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.kind gives high-level information about what type of information the event contains, without being specific to the contents of the event. For example, values of this field distinguish alert events from metric events. The value of this field can be used to inform how these kinds of events should be handled. They may warrant different retention, different access control, it may also help understand whether the data coming in at a regular interval or not.

keyword

event.outcome

This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the lowest level in the ECS category hierarchy. event.outcome simply denotes whether the event represents a success or a failure from the perspective of the entity that produced the event. Note that when a single transaction is described in multiple events, each event may populate different values of event.outcome, according to their perspective. Also note that in the case of a compound event (a single event that contains multiple logical events), this field should be populated with the value that best captures the overall success or failure from the perspective of the event producer. Further note that not all events will have an associated outcome. For example, this field is generally not populated for metric events, events with event.type:info, or any events for which an outcome does not make logical sense.

keyword

http.request.method

HTTP request method. The value should retain its casing from the original event. For example, GET, get, and GeT are all considered valid values for this field.

keyword

kibana.add_to_spaces

The set of space ids that a saved object was shared to.

keyword

kibana.authentication_provider

The authentication provider associated with a login event.

keyword

kibana.authentication_realm

The Elasticsearch authentication realm name which fulfilled a login event.

keyword

kibana.authentication_type

The authentication provider type associated with a login event.

keyword

kibana.delete_from_spaces

The set of space ids that a saved object was removed from.

keyword

kibana.lookup_realm

The Elasticsearch lookup realm which fulfilled a login event.

keyword

kibana.saved_object.id

The id of the saved object associated with this event.

keyword

kibana.saved_object.type

The type of the saved object associated with this event.

keyword

kibana.session_id

The ID of the user session associated with this event. Each login attempt results in a unique session id.

keyword

kibana.space_id

The id of the space associated with this event.

keyword

log.level

Original log level of the log event. If the source of the event provides a log level or textual severity, this is the one that goes in log.level. If your source doesn’t specify one, you may put your event transport’s severity here (e.g. Syslog severity). Some examples are warn, err, i, informational.

keyword

log.logger

The name of the logger inside an application. This is usually the name of the class which initialized the logger, or can be a custom name.

keyword

message

For log events the message field contains the log message, optimized for viewing in a log viewer. For structured logs without an original message field, other fields can be concatenated to form a human-readable summary of the event. If multiple messages exist, they can be combined into one message.

match_only_text

process.pid

Process id.

long

trace.id

Unique identifier of the trace. A trace groups multiple events like transactions that belong together. For example, a user request handled by multiple inter-connected services.

keyword

transaction.id

Unique identifier of the transaction within the scope of its trace. A transaction is the highest level of work measured within a service, such as a request to a server.

keyword

url.domain

Domain of the url, such as "http://www.elastic.co[www.elastic.co]". In some cases a URL may refer to an IP and/or port directly, without a domain name. In this case, the IP address would go to the domain field. If the URL contains a literal IPv6 address enclosed by [ and ] (IETF RFC 2732), the [ and ] characters should also be captured in the domain field.

keyword

url.path

Path of the request, such as "/search".

wildcard

url.port

Port of the request, such as 443.

long

url.query

The query field describes the query string of the request, such as "q=elasticsearch". The ? is excluded from the query string. If a URL contains no ?, there is no query field. If there is a ? but no query, the query field exists with an empty string. The exists query can be used to differentiate between the two cases.

keyword

url.scheme

Scheme of the request, such as "https". Note: The : is not part of the scheme.

keyword

user.name

Short name or login of the user.

keyword

user.name.text

Multi-field of user.name.

match_only_text

user.roles

Array of user roles at the time of the event.

keyword

@timestamp

Event timestamp.

date

data_stream.dataset

Data stream dataset.
