# OpenSearch destination plugin

export const entity_0 = "OpenSearch destination plugin"

export const plugin_0 = "OpenSearch destination plugin"

The OpenSearch [destination plugin](/ingest/pipeline/plugins/destination-plugins)
(name: `opensearch`) lets you configure your telemetry pipeline to send your
data to OpenSearch.

## Supported telemetry types

The {plugin_0} for Chronosphere Telemetry Pipeline supports these telemetry types:

|                    Logs                    |             Metrics             |              Traces             |
| :----------------------------------------: | :-----------------------------: | :-----------------------------: |
| <Icon icon="circle-check" color="green" /> | <Icon icon="ban" color="red" /> | <Icon icon="ban" color="red" /> |

## Configuration parameters

Use the parameters in this section to configure the {entity_0}. The
Telemetry Pipeline web interface uses the items in the **Name** column to
describe these parameters. [Pipeline configuration files](/ingest/pipeline/v2/configure/config-files)
use the items in the **Key** column as YAML keys.

| **Type**                 | `type`                | Type Name.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         | `_doc`       |

| **Buffer Size**          | `buffer_size`         | Specifies the buffer size used to read the response from the OpenSearch HTTP service. This option is useful for debugging purposes where is required to read full responses. Response size grows depending of the number of records inserted. To set an unlimited amount of memory set this value to `false`, otherwise the value must be according to the Unit Size specification | `512k`       |
| **Path**                 | `path`                | OpenSearch accepts new data on HTTP query path `/_bulk`. It's also possible to serve Elasticsearch behind a reverse proxy on a sub path. This option defines such path on the Telemetry Pipeline side. It adds only a path prefix in the indexing HTTP POST URI.                                                                                                                   | *none*       |

| **ID Key**               | `id_key`              | If set, `_id` will be the value of the key from incoming records.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  | *none*       |
| **Replace Dots**         | `current_time_index`  | Uses the current time for index generation instead of the message record. Accepted values: `true`, `false`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | `false`      |
| **Logstash Prefix**      | `logstash_prefix`     | When `logstash_format` is enabled, the index name is composed using a prefix and the date. For example, if `logstash_prefix` is `mydata`, your index becomes `mydata-YYYY.MM.DD`. The last string appended belongs to the date when the data is being generated.                                                                                                                   | *none*       |
| **Logstash Prefix Key**  | `logstash_prefix_key` | When included, the value in the record that belongs to the key will be looked up and over-write the `logstash_prefix` for index generation. If the key/value isn't found in the record, the `logstash_prefix` option acts as a fallback. Nested keys are supported through record accessor patterns.                                                                               | *none*       |
| **Logstash Date Format** | `logstash_dateformat` | Time format (based on `strftime`) to generate the second part of the index name.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   | `%Y.%m.%d`   |
| **Time Key**             | `time_key`            | When `logstash_format` is enabled, each record gets a new timestamp field. The `time_key` property defines the name of that field.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | `@timestamp` |
| **Time Key**             | `time_key_format`     | When `logstash_format` is enabled, this property defines the format of the timestamp.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | *none*       |
| **Time Key Nanos**       | `time_key_nanos`      | When `logstash_format` is enabled, enabling this property sends nanosecond precision timestamps.

| **Include Tag Key**      | `inclulde_tag_key`    | When enabled, it appends the tag name to the record. Accepted values: `true`, `false`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             | `false`      |
| **Tag Key**              | `tag_key`             | When `inclulde_tag_key` is enabled, this property defines the key name of the tag in the message.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  | `flb-key`    |
