Version: 3.0.0
Released on: 2016-09-09
Changelog
Compatible: 5.1.1.1, 5.0.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.0, 2.3.4

This plugin does not ship with Logstash by default, but it is easy to install by running bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-output-boundary.

This output lets you send annotations to Boundary based on Logstash events

Note that since Logstash maintains no state these will be one-shot events

By default the start and stop time will be the event timestamp

`api_key`

edit

This is a required setting.
Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

Your Boundary API key

`auto`

edit

Value type is boolean
Default value is false

Auto If set to true, logstash will try to pull boundary fields out of the event. Any field explicitly set by config options will override these. ['type', 'subtype', 'creation_time', 'end_time', 'links', 'tags', 'loc']

edit

Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

Type

`codec`

edit

The codec used for output data. Output codecs are a convenient method for encoding your data before it leaves the output, without needing a separate filter in your Logstash pipeline.

`enable_metric`

Value type is boolean
Default value is true

Disable or enable metric logging for this specific plugin instance by default we record all the metrics we can, but you can disable metrics collection for a specific plugin.

`end_time`

edit

Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

End time Override the stop time Note that Boundary requires this to be seconds since epoch If overriding, it is your responsibility to type this correctly By default this is set to event["@timestamp"].to_i

`id`

edit

Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

Add a unique ID to the plugin instance, this ID is used for tracking information for a specific configuration of the plugin.

output {
 stdout {
   id => "ABC"
 }
}

If you don’t explicitely set this variable Logstash will generate a unique name.

Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

Your Boundary Org ID
