To determine whether a tag exists within Logstash, you can use conditional statements. Here's how you can do that:
if "your_tag" in [tags] {
# Perform actions when the tag "your_tag" exists
}
This statement checks if the tag your_tag exists in the [tags] field of Logstash events. If it is present, the condition evaluates to true, and the corresponding actions are executed.
If you also want to handle scenarios where the tag does not exist, you can use an if/else statement:
if "your_tag" in [tags] {
# Perform actions when the tag "your_tag" exists
} else {
# Perform actions when the tag "your_tag" does not exist
}
This construct allows you to perform different actions based on whether the specified tag exists in Logstash events.
