Convert HEx to ascii

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

Hi again :slight_smile: In my current Project we are using dlt-tools to convert dlt logs into ascii to be read by logstash. Our dlt viewer is using a specific plugin to convert some lines from hex to ascii.
This is our log structure:
Index Timestamp Timestamp Tag1 Tag2 Tag3 Payload
When Payload is hex it is also surrounded by [SOME HEX] brackets.
What we would need is a dynamic logstash config that detects when Payload is Hex and then use some plugin to turn it into text (if the conversion works for us at all)
Thanks
