Hi there,

In my ElasticSearch setup, I have placed logging configuration such that any query on a particular index taking more than 300ms is to be logged. The logging is working fine, it is just that I wanted to get one more piece of information to be logged and that is the details of the source of query, where it originated from. Is there any way I can log the request headers for these slow queries or any other method I can get the details I need?  
Also, I have Marvel installed on all my nodes in the cluster. Can Marvel provide me the needed details?

Thanks.

There's currently no way to get this information logged without something like Shield.
