I’m renaming Fortigate’s field names from how Fortinet called them to a ECS compatible one. There is the [integration section](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/filebeat-module-fortinet.html#_fortinet_ecs_fields) and there is also the [exported field](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/exported-fields-fortinet.html#_firewall) section. Which one do I have to follow? Three examples to understand my dilema:  
**Example 1:**  
Fortinet’s firewall, Fortigate has a field called `action` . In the integration section says that has to be called `event.action` , but in the exported fields section says it’s `fortinet.firewall.action` . Which one should I pick?  
**Example 2:**  
Foirtigate has a field called `authserver` , which is not present in the integration section, but in the exported fields is called `fortinet.firewall.authserver` . I guess I’ve to pick this one.  
**Example 3:**  
Fortigate has a field called `filesize` . In integration is called `file.size` and it doesn’t exists in exported fields.  
So.. Should I take the names from integration and the rest from exported fields?  
Why to do this? Because in alerts I can’t view the visual analysis because “it has some incompatible field mappings” (so far I have all the integration field names, but none from the exported fields section).
