This is mainly useful on inputs and outputs that already have a defined framing in their transport protocol (such as zeromq, rabbitmq, redis, etc).

Examples include `UTF-8` and `cp1252` This setting is useful if your log files are in `Latin-1` (aka `cp1252`) or in another character set other than `UTF-8`. This only affects "plain" format logs since json is `UTF-8` already. [id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-ecs_compatibility"] ===== `ecs_compatibility` * Value type is <> * Supported values are: ** `disabled`: plugin only sets the `message` field ** `v1`,`v8`: Elastic Common Schema compliant behavior (`[event][original]` is also added) * Default value depends on which version of Logstash is running: ** When Logstash provides a `pipeline.ecs_compatibility` setting, its value is used as the default ** Otherwise, the default value is `disabled` Controls this plugin's compatibility with the {ecs-ref}[Elastic Common Schema (ECS)]. [id="plugins-{type}s-{plugin}-format"] ===== `format` * Value type is <> * There is no default value for this setting. Set the message you which to emit for each event. This supports `sprintf` strings. This setting only affects outputs (encoding of events).
