Functions

Create new function

Creates a new custom transformation function using VRL (Vector Remap Language) code. Functions can be used in data ingestion pipelines to transform, enrich, or filter incoming log, metric, and trace data. Support complex data transformations, field extraction, format conversion, and conditional processing to standardize data before storage and indexing.

Request body

functionstring required

Response

Success

codeinteger required
error_detailstring nullable

One-line guidance on how to fix the error (agent self-correction, D4).

idstring nullable
messagestring required
namestring nullable
suggestionsstring[] nullable

Closest valid alternatives for a mistyped field/function name.

trace_idstring nullable

Problems with a request that succeeded anyway. Distinct from hint, which explains a failure: these accompany a 200, and the caller is entitled to have meant it.
