Use the azure blob storage input to read content from files stored in containers which reside on your Azure Cloud. The input can be configured to work with and without polling, though currently, if polling is disabled it will only perform a one time passthrough, list the file contents and end the process. Polling is generally recommented for most cases even though it can get expensive with dealing with a very large number of files.

To mitigate errors and ensure a stable processing environment, this input employs the following features :

1. When processing azure blob containers, if suddenly there is any outage, the process will be able to resume post the last file it processed and was successfully able to save the state for.

2. If any errors occur for certain files, they will be logged appropriately, but the rest of the files will continue to be processed normally.

3. If any major error occurs which stops the main thread, the logs will be appropriately generated, describing said error.

[id="supported-types"] NOTE: Currently only JSON and NDJSON are supported blob/file formats. Blobs/files may be also be gzip compressed. As for authentication types, we currently have support for shared access keys and connection strings.

ECS Field Mapping

This integration includes the ECS Dynamic Template, all fields that follows the ECS Schema will get assigned the correct index field mapping and does not need to be added manually.

Ingest Pipelines

Custom ingest pipelines may be added by adding the name to the pipeline configuration option, creating custom ingest pipelines can be done either through the API or the Ingest Node Pipeline UI.
