Hi Badger,
Thank you for your reply.
But the elements in datasource are variable componet as they are not fixed. Please find the below response in detail.
{
"datasource" =\> [
[0] "ciscoMemoryPoolUsed",
[1] "ciscoSupyState",
[2] "csSupSource",
[3] "tcpEstabResets",
[4] "CiscoEnvMonState",
[5] "ciscoMemoryPoolFree"
[6],......
],
"DatasourceNodeId" =\> "2",
"@timestamp" =\> 2022-06-14T16:38:16.628472Z
}
{
"DatasourceNodeId" =\> "1"
"datasource" =\> [
[0] "icmp",
[1] "http",
[2] "https"
],

If neither approach in the linked thread works for you I would suggest making the http call from a ruby filter instead of using an http filter.
