I have tried adding in our Logstash config the mutator below but still get errors after restarting logstash:

mutate {
        rename => { "_Domain_Labels[0]_ULabel " => "%{[Domain_Labels[0]_ULabel]}"}
    }

Is there a way to mutate _Domain_Labels[0]_ULabel to fix the invalid FieldReference error?

2

By the time a field with that name is created it may already be too late to fix it. How is it getting created?

Its getting created via another project we have that turns it into _Domain_Labels_0_ULabel. So I think your right its probably too late to fix using mutate, and we probably have to find the source and change config there.

personally curious. Do you mind providing a sample doc?

5

@Badger Is there a way to ignore invalid fieldreference errors?

I think that only if you do not try to mutate the field, if you try to mutate you will get this error.

I don't think you can fix this in Logstash, you need to fix this before sending the data to Logstash.
