You can tune the max number of in flight messages (or message batches) with the field `max_in_flight`. This output benefits from sending messages as a batch for improved performance. Batches can be formed at both the input and output level. You can find out more xref:configuration:batching.adoc[in this doc]. == Fields === `url` Full HTTP Endpoint Collector (HEC) URL. *Type*: `string` ```yml # Examples url: https://foobar.splunkcloud.com/services/collector/event ``` === `token` A bot token used for authentication. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` === `gzip` Enable gzip compression *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` === `event_host` Set the host value to assign to the event data. Overrides existing host field if present. *Type*: `string` === `event_source` Set the source value to assign to the event data. Overrides existing source field if present. *Type*: `string` === `event_sourcetype` Set the sourcetype value to assign to the event data. Overrides existing sourcetype field if present. *Type*: `string` === `event_index` Set the index value to assign to the event data. Overrides existing index field if present. *Type*: `string` === `tls` Custom TLS settings can be used to override system defaults. *Type*: `object` === `tls.enabled` Whether custom TLS settings are enabled. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` === `tls.skip_cert_verify` Whether to skip server side certificate verification. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` === `tls.enable_renegotiation` Whether to allow the remote server to repeatedly request renegotiation. Enable this option if you're seeing the error message `local error: tls: no renegotiation`. *Type*: `bool` *Default*: `false` Requires version 3.45.0 or newer === `tls.root_cas` An optional root certificate authority to use. This is a string, representing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples root_cas: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- ``` === `tls.root_cas_file` An optional path of a root certificate authority file to use. This is a file, often with a .pem extension, containing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples root_cas_file: ./root_cas.pem ``` === `tls.client_certs` A list of client certificates to use. For each certificate either the fields `cert` and `key`, or `cert_file` and `key_file` should be specified, but not both. *Type*: `array` *Default*: `[]` ```yml # Examples client_certs: - cert: foo key: bar client_certs: - cert_file: ./example.pem key_file: ./example.key ``` === `tls.client_certs[].cert` A plain text certificate to use. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `tls.client_certs[].key` A plain text certificate key to use. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `tls.client_certs[].cert_file` The path of a certificate to use. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `tls.client_certs[].key_file` The path of a certificate key to use. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` === `tls.client_certs[].password` A plain text password for when the private key is password encrypted in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8 format. The obsolete `pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC` algorithm is not supported for the PKCS#8 format. Because the obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm does not authenticate the ciphertext, it is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks that can let an attacker recover the plaintext. [CAUTION] ==== This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn't be added to a config directly, read our xref:configuration:secrets.adoc[secrets page for more info]. ==== *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples password: foo password: ${KEY_PASSWORD} ``` === `max_in_flight` The maximum number of messages to have in flight at a given time. Increase this to improve throughput. *Type*: `int` *Default*: `64` === `batching` Allows you to configure a xref:configuration:batching.adoc[batching policy]. *Type*: `object` ```yml # Examples batching: byte_size: 5000 count: 0 period: 1s batching: count: 10 period: 1s batching: check: this.contains("END BATCH") count: 0 period: 1m ``` === `batching.count` A number of messages at which the batch should be flushed. If `0` disables count based batching. *Type*: `int` *Default*: `0` === `batching.byte_size` An amount of bytes at which the batch should be flushed. If `0` disables size based batching. *Type*: `int` *Default*: `0` === `batching.period` A period in which an incomplete batch should be flushed regardless of its size. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples period: 1s period: 1m period: 500ms ``` === `batching.check` A xref:guides:bloblang/about.adoc[Bloblang query] that should return a boolean value indicating whether a message should end a batch. *Type*: `string` *Default*: `""` ```yml # Examples check: this.type == "end_of_transaction" ``` === `batching.processors` A list of xref:components:processors/about.adoc[processors] to apply to a batch as it is flushed. This allows you to aggregate and archive the batch however you see fit. Please note that all resulting messages are flushed as a single batch, therefore splitting the batch into smaller batches using these processors is a no-op. *Type*: `array` ```yml # Examples processors: - archive: format: concatenate processors: - archive: format: lines processors: - archive: format: json_array ```
