URL Decode
editURL Decode
editThe urldecode
processor specifies a list of fields to decode from URL encoded format. Under the fields
key, each entry contains a from: source-field
and a to: target-field
pair, where:
-
from
is the source field name -
to
is the target field name (defaults to thefrom
value)
processors: - urldecode: fields: - from: "field1" to: "field2" ignore_missing: false fail_on_error: true
In the example above:
- field1 is decoded in field2
The urldecode
processor has the following configuration settings:
-
ignore_missing
-
(Optional) If set to true, no error is logged in case a key
which should be URL-decoded is missing. Default is
false
. -
fail_on_error
-
(Optional) If set to true, in case of an error the URL-decoding
of fields is stopped and the original event is returned. If set to false, decoding
continues also if an error happened during decoding. Default is
true
.
See Conditions for a list of supported conditions.
