Customizing Log Output Formats

Overview

Users can customize log output formats, including selecting different logging styles (such as JSON Lines or CSV) and defining the prefix and suffix of batches and single logs, as well as the delimiter between log records or fields. The default format for real-time and offline logs is JSON Lines.
Note:
Currently, only real-time logs - site acceleration logs support configuring the log output format.

Configuration Item

Log output format: Preset output format type for log shipping.
JSON Lines: Fields in a single log are presented as key-value pairs.
CSV: Only field values are presented in a single log, without displaying field names.
Batch prefix & suffix: Users can define prefixes and suffixes for log batches. A batch refers to a single log push request. Each log shipping batch may contain multiple log records.
Prefix: A string added before each log shipping batch.
Suffix: A string appended after each log shipping batch.
Single log record prefix & suffix:
Prefix: A string added before each log record.
Suffix: A string appended after each log record.
Note:
When log sampling or filtering is not enabled, for domain name business, one HTTP request corresponds to one log record.
Log record delimiter: A string inserted between log records as a delimiter.
Field delimiter: A string inserted between fields within a single log record as a delimiter.
