## `MAX_EVENT_FIELD_COUNT_IN_PARSER`

Option | `MAX_EVENT_FIELD_COUNT_IN_PARSER`
Description | Specifies the number of fields allowed within the parser
Introduced Version | 1.92.0

A parser can temporarily have a higher number of fields in an event that is allowed when storing it. This allows specific uses; for example:

logscale

    parseJson(field=@rawstring)
    | drop(@rawstring)
    | split(array)

will have more fields in the event after `parseJson()`, which are then split into multiple smaller events that all satisfy the existing limit on the number of fields in an event being stored.

This configuration variable controls the number of fields allowed within the parser, but not when storing the event.
