Forwarder

Forwarder nodes are used to transmit the log record to a third-party service, allowing interoperability with external systems.

For a complete list of available forwarders, refer to the Forwarders Documentation.

NB: Forwarder nodes references forwarders by their unique name. If a forwarder is updated, all forwarder nodes referencing it will be invalidated.

Example​

Let's assume we have configured a Webhook Forwarder named zapier with the following webhook URL:

http://example-zapier-webhook.com

The following are equivalent:

{
  "timestamp": "...",
  "fields": {
    "content": "hello world"
  }
}

⇒

Forwarder node

OR

POST http://example-zapier-webhook.com
{
  "timestamp": "...",
  "fields": {
    "content": "hello world"
  }
}
