Hi @zerratriani ,

You're using Logstash, right? Can you share your current configuration?

If your JSON contains serialized JSON in fields, like this:

```
{"stuff": "...", "responsePayload": {"data": "{\"redacted\":\"foo\"}" } }

```

then you can use json filters to parse it.

```
    json { source => "message" target => "parsed_message" }
    json { source => "[parsed_message][responsePayload][data]" target => "parsed_payload" }

```

will produce

```
"parsed_payload" => {
    "redacted" => "foo"
},
"parsed_message" => {
    "responsePayload" => {
        "data" => "{\"redacted\":\"foo\"}"
    },
              "stuff" => "..."
}

```

so what does your message look like? Your example does not include anything called responsePayload
