Hi evreyone,  
I'm not sure if I had to post this here or in a paloalto forum.  
Problem:  
My logstash take the logs that are coming from paloalto, this type of log have a precise structure explained here : [Threat Log Fields](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/9-0/pan-os-admin/monitoring/use-syslog-for-monitoring/syslog-field-descriptions/threat-log-fields.html#id83052cb2-4798-4f9c-abf8-e0b929ce7a3b)

But when I recive the log it show only few field.  
When I do this for the traffic logs there is no problem (I find all the fields i want).

Where the data is lost ?  
My pipline has no filter

If you have no filters and just a straight input to output and you aren't seeing all the expected data then I would go back to the source. I'd also post on paloalto forum.

The only way it could be Logstash is depending on the input/output plugins you used if they have a way of filtering data also.
