Event fields
These top-level fields describe when the event happened, its message, and its severity.
| Field | Type | Unit | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
t | string | timestamp | When the thing being reported was observed. For an occurrence this is when the fact happened, not when the agent found it. |
message | string | A one-line human summary of this event's row data. Not a hash and not the payload: the structured readings ride sparklogs.data.<topic>. | |
severity | string | The grade this event ships at. | |
native_severity | string | The grade the agent arrived at before its reason's ceiling reduced it. Present only when a ceiling actually clamped the event, which is rare; its presence is what says a clamp happened. | |
__autoextract_disable_extract_fields | bool | Tells the pipeline not to mine custom fields out of the message text. The readings are already structured, so extraction could only invent duplicates of them. |
