Event Forwarding Rules

You can configure event forwarding rules in the UI. This is only possible after creating at least one Event Forwarders.

  1. Go to Repositories and Views and select a relevant repository.

  2. Click Settings, under Egress in the side menu click Event Forwarding to see and manage the event forwarding rules that apply to the repository.

    Screenshot of the LogScale Event Forwarding Rules configuration interface showing the repository settings page where users can create and manage rules for forwarding events to external systems. The interface displays a form with fields for entering query rules to filter which events should be forwarded and a dropdown selector for choosing the target event forwarder. The panel includes options to save the rule configuration and displays any existing event forwarding rules already configured for the repository. This interface allows administrators to control precisely which events get forwarded from LogScale to external systems like Kafka for further processing or integration.

  3. To create an event forwarding rule, specify a rule and select an already configured event forwarder.

    The rule is a normal LogScale query. It is applied to the parsed events, and can be used to filter away events that you do not wish to forward, or add fields to or remove fields from the events before forwarding them. Any manipulation done to the events only apply to the forwarded events, whereas the events stored in LogScale will be the events that came out of the parser.

  4. Click Save rule.
