Configuration

KinesisStream

Send your logs to a Kinesis Stream

delivery_stream_name (string, required)

Name of the delivery stream to put data.

Default: -

append_new_line (*bool, optional)

If it is enabled, the plugin adds new line character (\n) to each serialized record. Before appending \n, plugin calls chomp and removes separator from the end of each record as chomp_record is true. Therefore, you don’t need to enable chomp_record option when you use kinesis_firehose output with default configuration (append_new_line is true). If you want to set append_new_line false, you can choose chomp_record false (default) or true (compatible format with plugin v2). (Default:true)

Default: -

aws_key_id (*secret.Secret, optional)

AWS access key id. This parameter is required when your agent is not running on EC2 instance with an IAM Role.

Default: -

aws_sec_key (*secret.Secret, optional)

AWS secret key. This parameter is required when your agent is not running on EC2 instance with an IAM Role.

Default: -

aws_ses_token (*secret.Secret, optional)

AWS session token. This parameter is optional, but can be provided if using MFA or temporary credentials when your agent is not running on EC2 instance with an IAM Role.

Default: -

aws_iam_retries (int, optional)

The number of attempts to make (with exponential backoff) when loading instance profile credentials from the EC2 metadata service using an IAM role. Defaults to 5 retries.

Default: -

assume_role_credentials (*KinesisFirehoseAssumeRoleCredentials, optional)

Typically, you can use AssumeRole for cross-account access or federation.

Default: -

process_credentials (*KinesisFirehoseProcessCredentials, optional)

This loads AWS access credentials from an external process.

Default: -

region (string, optional)

AWS region of your stream. It should be in form like us-east-1, us-west-2. Default nil, which means try to find from environment variable AWS_REGION.

Default: -

retries_on_batch_request (int, optional)

The plugin will put multiple records to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams in batches using PutRecords. A set of records in a batch may fail for reasons documented in the Kinesis Service API Reference for PutRecords. Failed records will be retried retries_on_batch_request times

Default: -

reset_backoff_if_success (bool, optional)

Boolean, default true. If enabled, when after retrying, the next retrying checks the number of succeeded records on the former batch request and reset exponential backoff if there is any success. Because batch request could be composed by requests across shards, simple exponential backoff for the batch request wouldn’t work some cases.

Default: -

batch_request_max_count (int, optional)

Integer, default 500. The number of max count of making batch request from record chunk. It can’t exceed the default value because it’s API limit.

Default: -

batch_request_max_size (int, optional)

Integer. The number of max size of making batch request from record chunk. It can’t exceed the default value because it’s API limit.

Default: -

format (*Format, optional)

Format

Default: -

buffer (*Buffer, optional)

Buffer

Default: -

slow_flush_log_threshold (string, optional)

The threshold for chunk flush performance check. Parameter type is float, not time, default: 20.0 (seconds) If chunk flush takes longer time than this threshold, fluentd logs warning message and increases metric fluentd_output_status_slow_flush_count.

Default: -

Assume Role Credentials

assume_role_credentials

role_arn (string, required) {#assume role-credentials-role_arn}

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role to assume

Default: -

role_session_name (string, required) {#assume role-credentials-role_session_name}

An identifier for the assumed role session

Default: -

policy (string, optional) {#assume role-credentials-policy}

An IAM policy in JSON format

Default: -

duration_seconds (string, optional) {#assume role-credentials-duration_seconds}

The duration, in seconds, of the role session (900-3600)

Default: -

external_id (string, optional) {#assume role-credentials-external_id}

A unique identifier that is used by third parties when assuming roles in their customers’ accounts.

Default: -

Process Credentials

process_credentials

process (string, required)
