Hi all  
I want to format to output some information regarding the detection in SIEM.  
For example i want to output the source.ip when some query that i have for dns log.  
To be more precise, i have an detection rule that query for any dns query, if hit i want to see the source.ip field in the email so that i dont really have to access siem app just to view it.  
Can anyone help me.  
Thanks for your time.

Hey there @lusynda! 👋

This functionality will be available in the upcoming `7.11` release and was added as part of this [PR](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/85488). So for example, you'll be able to print out the `source.ip` for each matching alert by using something like the following within your email alert payload:

```auto
{{#context.alerts}}Source IP of alert: {{source.ip}}{{/context.alerts}}

```

Hope this helps! 🙂

Cheers!  
Garrett
