Hello everyone,

I've been struggling with the following values for a few days now: agent.ephemeral\_id,agent.id,agent.name,agent.type,agent.version

I use the plugin Palo Alto to transfer the logs to elasticserach and these values are passed into every document. Where can I remove the values from the datastream? I have already dropped the data in the plugin settings under advanced, unfortunately without success ☹

Maybe someone knows how I can switch it off.

Many thanks in advance  
Dominik
