    Description

      Proposed title of this feature request

        Additional Custom Log Metadata

      What is the nature and description of the request?

        Customer would like a way to add metadata fields in the log messages gathered by fluentd. This would be a constant value set on each log. Historically they have used something like:

       <filter project.**>
        @type record_transformer
         <record>
          cluster_name my_cluster_identifier
         </record>
       </filter>

       

      Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

       

        Customer sends logs through LogForwarding from multiple clusters. They'd like to add a custom metadata field which is hard set to the cluster name so they can more easily search in their external log store.

      They would like a way to do this in a supported way with a Managed ClusterLogging instance
